Grilled Jalapeno Poppers

By crisscut

Jalapeno peppers can be very hot. Use caution and wear rubber gloves if you have a skin sensitivity. Keep hands away from face and eyes. Wash hands thoroughly with warm water and soap when finished.

Ingredients

• 12 large jalapeno peppers
• 1 cup Mexican blend shredded cheese
• 6 thick slices bacon

Preparation

Step 1

Slice peppers from stem to tip on one side. Carefully squeeze ends of pepper and scoop out seeds and veins with a small spoon. Stuff each pepper with shredded cheese. Cut bacon slices in half. Wrap each pepper with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick.

Preheat grill. Grill peppers 3 - 5 minutes on each side or until bacon is cooked, but not crisp.

Remove from grill and serve while hot.
