Categories     Appetizer     Main Course     Snack

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large jalapeno peppers ((or more as needed))
8 ounces cream cheese
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound ground Italian sausage ((I used hot Italian sausage))
12 slices bacon

Steps:

  • Remove the stem from the jalapeno peppers, then core them out.
  • Mix together the cream cheese, chili powder, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stuff each jalapeno with the cream cheese mixture.
  • Form 1/4 of the Italian sausage around the entire outside of the stuffed jalapeno pepper. It will resemble an egg.
  • Next, wrap each with 3 slices of bacon. Be sure to get the bacon wrapped all the way around. You can use toothpicks to affix them, if needed.
  • Heat your grill to medium heat (about 400 degrees F.) and lightly oil the grates.
  • Grill the armadillo eggs for 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the armadillo eggs are cooked through.
  • Serve them up!

ARMADILLO EGGS (STUFFED JALAPENOS)



Armadillo Eggs (stuffed jalapenos) image

These are so yummy. The cheese and bacon are a great compliment to the jalapeno flavor and reduce the heat of the peppers. This is my adaptation of an appetizer I had many years ago.

Time 1h15m

Yield 30 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 5

15 fresh jalapenos
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
2 tablespoons minced onions
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
thin sliced bacon

Steps:

  • Slice jalapenos in half and clean out seeds (be sure to get them all or they will be hot).
  • Mix cheese, onion and garlic salt together and spoon into jalapeno halves.
  • Wrap each with 1/2 strip of bacon.
  • Place on cookie rack placed over a cookie sheet to catch the drippings.
  • Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or until the bacon is crisp.
  • The thin bacon wraps easier.
  • I just tuck the ends under the bottom.
  • Amazingly, these are not hot if you get all the seeds out.
  • There are never enough of them no matter how many I make because they are so popular.
