Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Jalapeno Poppers

jalapenos

cream cheese

garlic powder

oz raw medium shrimp (peeled)

bacon

Cut jalapenos lengthwise and remove the seeds.

Mix together the cream cheese and garlic powder and press some cream cheese mixture into each jalapeno.

Lay a shrimp down the center of the jalapeno. Make a partial cut about half way down the length of the shrimp if needed to help it lay flat.

Wrap with a half slice of bacon and secure with toothpicks.

If you are cutting the peppers in half:

Cut the stem off of the jalapenos and clean the seeds out of the middle.

Chop the shrimp and mix with cream cheese and garlic powder. Stuff into jalapenos.

Cross ¼ slices of bacon over the top of the pepper and secure with toothpicks. Place in rack to cook.

If you are leaving peppers whole and cooking them upright:

To grill the peppers, just grill covered over medium heat. By the time the bacon is done, everything is done.

To bake them, put them in an oven preheated to 350°F for 10 minutes and then turn the temperature up to 400°F for 5-10 minutes or until the bacon is done to your liking. The same instructions can be used for electric smokers or pellet grills.

Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Bacon Shrimp Jalapeno Poppers

These Mexican Street Corn Jalapeno Poppers combine the smoky heat of jalapenos with a creamy, cheesy Mexican street corn filling, topped with crispy bacon and tangy cotija cheese. They are perfect as a flavorful appetizer or snack, available with three cooking methods: air frying, grilling, and baking to suit your preferred kitchen setup.

Mexican Street Corn Jalapeno Poppers Recipe

large ears sweet corn,

Tajin seasoning, plus extra for topping

cream cheese, softened to room temperature

sour cream (can substitute Greek yogurt)

mayonnaise

sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

cumin

cilantro,

cotija cheese

Prepare Jalapenos

Slice jalapenos in half lengthwise and carefully remove seeds and stems using a teaspoon or paring knife. Set them aside for stuffing.

Cook Bacon

Cut bacon into approximately 1-inch pieces. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Remove from skillet, cool, then crumble and set aside.

Sauté Corn

Using the same skillet, add the sliced corn and sauté over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon Tajin, stirring occasionally, then reduce heat to low.

Make Cheese Mixture

Add cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, cumin, and half the chopped cilantro to the skillet with the corn. Stir well to combine and simmer over low heat until all the cheeses are fully melted and the mixture is creamy.

Stuff Jalapenos

Transfer the cheese and corn mixture into a large zip-top bag. Snip off one corner to create a piping bag and carefully pipe the mixture into each jalapeno half, creating a slightly rounded top.

Cook the Poppers

Grill

Preheat grill to 400°F (204°C) and lightly oil grates. Place jalapeno poppers directly on grates and cook 8-10 minutes until lightly charred and cheese is melted.

Bake

Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange poppers on it. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and cheese is melted.

Garnish and Serve

Remove the cooked poppers from your selected cooking method to a plate. Top each with crumbled cotija cheese, crispy bacon pieces, remaining cilantro, and a light sprinkle of Tajin seasoning. Serve warm and enjoy!
