Baked Jalapeño Poppers with Bacon
Oven-baked jalapeño halves stuffed with a creamy chicken and cheddar filling, topped with crispy bacon bits for a smoky and satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast, cooked and shredded
2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
4 large jalapeño peppers
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp cream cheese
1 oz sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp onion powder
0.13 tsp sea salt
0.13 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh chives, chopped
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Slice each jalapeño in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon, carefully scrape out the seeds and white membranes to control the heat level.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, half of the shredded cheddar, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Stir the mixture until well combined and creamy.
Fill each jalapeño half with a generous portion of the chicken and cheese mixture, pressing it down slightly.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and the crumbled bacon bits evenly over the top of each stuffed pepper.
Place the poppers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is golden and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before garnishing with fresh chives and serving.
