Poppers de jalapeño
These jalapeño poppers are fresh chiles halved and stuffed with a garlicky, sharp-cheddar cream cheese, wrapped in bacon, and baked until the peppers soften and the bacon turns deep and crisp. Every bite is molten, smoky, and mildly spicy inside a crackly bacon shell. Baking on a wire rack lets the fat render away so the bacon crisps evenly instead of steaming, while the oven's heat mellows the raw bite of the jalapeños.
