Stuffed Jalapeños

Serves 6 | Prep Time 10 minutes | Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 large jalapeños, halved and de-seeded
  • 1 package prepared medium Chakalaka, cooled slightly
  • 12 slices of thick-cut bacon
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish
  • Ranch dressing, for dipping (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. If using the air fryer, preheat to 400 degrees F.

  2. Halve and carefully de-seed your jalapeños. Wash your hands immediately after to prevent any burning.

  3. Add 1-2 tablespoons of Chakalaka to the middle of the jalapeños.

  4. Wrap each jalapeño with one slice of bacon. Secure a toothpick into each side so the bacon stays put when cooking. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

  5. Place the stuffed jalapeños on a baking sheet and bake or place them right into the air fryer. Cook for 20 minutes if using an oven, and 8-10 minutes if using an air fryer.

  6. Once the bacon is cooked and crispy, remove the stuffed jalapeños.

  7. Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Serve with a garnish of parsley and ranch dressing for dipping.
