Chorizo & Queso Stuffed Jalapenos

Prep: 20 Min, Cook 30 min.

Serves 8-10

Ingredients

  • 1 package Cacique® Pork Chorizo
  • ½ cup crumbled Cacique® Queso Fresco
  • ½ cup Cacique® Queso Dip
  • 12 jalapeños
  • 12 slices bacon
  • 12 toothpicks
  • 3 tablespoons agave syrup

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Microwave Cacique Fully Cooked Chorizo for 3 – 4 minutes until heated through.
  2. Leaving the stem end intact, halve the jalapeños lengthwise. Use a paring knife to remove the seeds and white membranes (the more you leave behind, the spicier the jalapeños will be).
  3. Add the Cacique Queso Fresco and your favorite Cacique Queso Dip to the mixing bowl and stir until incorporated (it doesn’t need to be completely smooth as there will be crumbles of Queso Fresco). Spoon the filling into each jalapeno, spreading it end to end but ensuring it doesn’t overflow; you’ll need 2 to 3 teaspoons each.
  4. Cut the bacon strips in half and tightly roll a half-strip around each jalapeno. Use a toothpick to secure the ends. Bake the jalapenos, open side up, for 25 to 30 minutes, until the bacon is opaque with a bit of browning. Dilute the agave syrup in about 1 tablespoon very hot water and use a brush to paint it over the tops of the jalapenos. Continue baking for 5 minutes to allow the bacon to caramelize; if you’d like, broil for an additional 2 minutes to crisp it further. Serve warm.
