Ingredients
Nonstick spray
6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 green onions, minced
12 large jalapenos, halved lengthwise and seeded
12 slices center-cut bacon, halved lengthwise
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, Cheddar, cilantro, salt, pepper and green onions.
- Fill each jalapeno half with a heaping teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture. Wrap the bacon tightly around the jalapenos, overlapping slightly.
- Place the wrapped jalapenos, cheese-side up and spaced 1-inch apart, on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Transfer to the oven and bake until the bacon is crisp, about 25 minutes.
