Provided by Sally

Categories     Appetizer

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 fresh jalapeño peppers*
8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese*
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
12 slices bacon, cut in half
24 toothpicks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (best for clean-up) or a silicone baking mat. Place a baking rack on top of the baking sheet. Set aside.
  • Cut the jalapeño 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 - I add just a pinch. Spoon filling equally among all 24 jalapeño halves.
  • Wrap each stuffed jalapeño 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.

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

15 jalapenos, preferably red, cut in 1/2, seeded and deveined
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 pounds mild Italian sausage, casings removed
1/4 cup minced red onion
1/4 cup minced red bell pepper
3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 cups mascarpone or cream cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and set a rack in the middle of the oven.
  • Place jalapenos on a sheet tray and roast for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Turn broiler on medium.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saute pan. Add the sausage and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Add the onions, peppers, and garlic and cook to soften for about 5 minutes. Remove and place in a large bowl. Cool to room temperature, then add mascarpone, and Parmesan. Mix ingredients thoroughly and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place approximately 1 tablespoon of mixture into each jalapeno half, and top with 1/2 teaspoon of mozzarella cheese.
  • Place the sheet tray of stuffed peppers in oven and broil until mozzarella cheese melts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Look for firm, dark green jalapeños with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller peppers are generally hotter than larger ones.
  • Wear gloves: Capsaicin, the compound that gives jalapeños their heat, can irritate your skin. Wear gloves when handling the peppers, especially if you have sensitive skin.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs: This will help reduce the heat of the peppers. You can use a spoon or a paring knife to remove the seeds and ribs.
  • Use a variety of fillings: There are many different fillings that you can use for stuffed jalapeños. Some popular options include cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, ground beef, and sausage. You can also add spices, herbs, and vegetables to your filling.
  • Bake or fry the peppers: Stuffed jalapeños can be baked or fried. If you are baking them, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are frying them, heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Serve immediately: Stuffed jalapeños are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish.

Conclusion:

Stuffed jalapeños are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like them mild or hot, stuffed jalapeños are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
