Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 400º. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Place a baking rack on top of the baking sheet. Set aside. Cut the jalapeno peppers in half lengthwise; remove seeds and center membrane. Set aside. Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, and paprika together until combined. You could also do this by hand using a rubber spatula. Salt to taste. Spoon filling equally among all 24 jalapeno halves. Wrap each stuffed jalapeno with a half slice of bacon and stick a toothpick through the center to assure the bacon stays in place. Place each on the baking rack and bake for 25 - 28 minutes or until the bacon is crisp to your liking. I like to turn the oven to broil for the last minute or two to get things extra crispy. Serve immediately. Cover leftovers and keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. |
