Johnny Jalapenos Mexican Bacon And Cheese Hors Doeuvres Recipes

JOHNNY JALAPENO'S MEXICAN BACON AND CHEESE HORS D'OEUVRES

Steps:

• Mix all filling ingredients well. Spread filling over each tortilla, spreading to the edges. Tightly roll up tortillas to form a log. Wrap each tortilla securely with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to set.
• Preheat oven to 400°F Place a sheet of parchment paper onto a baking sheet and set aside. Unwrap the rolls from the plastic wrap and trim off ends and discard (or eat). Slice the rolls into 8 slices.
• Cut bacon slices in half and wrap around each appetizer overlapping just a bit. Secure the bacon to the wraps with toothpicks going thru just to the other side (this also serves as holders to pick up the appetizers later). If the bacon slice does not go all the way around the roll, place the loose ends facing down onto the parchment paper.
• Bake for 30 minutes, until the bacon is crisp. Remove from the oven and arrange on a serving platter.

• Mix cream cheese and Cheddar cheese together in a bowl until evenly blended. Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture. Put halves back together and wrap each stuffed pepper with a slice of bacon. Arrange bacon-wrapped peppers on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Soak toothpicks in small bowl of warm water to prevent burning. Line large rimmed cookie sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Place bacon on foil; bake about 12 minutes or until soft and pliable. Transfer to paper-towel lined plate. Discard foil and bacon drippings, or reserve for another use. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• In small bowl, mix cream cheese and chives. Spoon or pipe mixture evenly into chile halves.
• Wrap 1 piece of bacon over top and sides of each stuffed chile half; secure with soaked toothpick. Place on cookie sheet.
• Bake 11 to 14 minutes or until bacon is cooked through and chiles are tender. Serve warm.
