INGREDIENTS

8 oz ground turkey (93% lean)

0.25 cup plain non-fat greek yogurt

1 oz neufchatel cheese

6 large jalapeños

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp smoked paprika

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp fresh chives

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and use a spoon to carefully scrape out the seeds and white membranes.

• 3

  In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground turkey until browned and no longer pink, breaking it into small crumbles.

• 4

  In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, Greek yogurt, softened Neufchatel cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 5

  Stir the mixture until the cheese and yogurt are well incorporated and the turkey is evenly coated.

• 6

  Spoon the turkey filling into each jalapeño half, mounding it slightly and pressing firmly to ensure it stays in place.

• 7

  Arrange the stuffed jalapeños on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is hot.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped chives before serving.
