As I mentioned in my last post, I am drowning in home-grown Jalapeños. I have decided to eat my way out one recipe at a time :).

These cheese stuffed Jalapeños, wrapped in bacon to make them irresistible, are so easy to make but not for the faint hearted.

Take a chili and cut it almost in half leaving a lip and the stalk attached to one side. Scoop out the pith and the seeds. Then stuff the cavity with your favourite cheese, I used a mix of mozzarella, parmesan and cheddar.

Next, put the lid back on and wrap the whole thing in a strip of bacon.

Pop them on an oven tray as you go and then into a fan-forced oven (pre-heated to 200C) for about 20 minutes or the bacon is crispy enough for your liking.

Served hot or chilled, your guests are going to love them.

Enjoy,

PK
