INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Chicken
2 Jalapeños, halved
2 slices Turkey Bacon
0.5 oz Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
0.5 tsp Chili Powder
0.5 tsp Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and carefully remove the seeds and membranes to reduce excess heat.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the lean ground chicken, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Crisp the turkey bacon in a separate pan until nicely browned, then crumble it into small pieces.
Mix the cooked chicken with the crumbled turkey bacon and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
Spoon the chicken mixture into each jalapeño half, pressing lightly to secure the filling.
Place the stuffed jalapeños on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the jalapeños are tender.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
