One of my favorite appetizers to serve my family and friends are Jalapeno Poppers. I usually wrap them with Bacon and smoke them to add some flavor. They are always a big hit whenever I serve them.
Today I wanted to make these a meal. So I added some Chicken and wrapped up all the ingredients in a flour tortilla. A few minutes on my Blackstone Griddle and I had a delicious meal that was filling and satisfying, as it had the wonderful flavors of a Jalapeno Popper.
If you love Jalapeno Poppers you definitely need to try these. As a bonus they are very easy to make and prepare, let me show you.
Ingredients:
Flour Tortillas
12 oz whipped Cream Cheese
8 oz shredded Cheddar Cheese
6 slices Bacon, chopped into pieces
2-3 Jalapeños, seeded and diced (or use canned diced jalapeños)
Garlic powder
1-2 chicken breasts, cubed (or thighs/tenders)
1-2 tbsp Mayonnaise
Seasoning of your choice
Oil for frying
Cook the Bacon until crispy. Remove it from the pan, reserving the bacon fat, and allow the Bacon to cool, then cut and crumble it.
Meanwhile, coat the cubed Chicken with Mayonnaise (1 tbsp per chicken breast or just enough to coat thinly) and season with the Seasoning of your choice.
Cook the chicken in the reserved bacon fat until fully cooked, then remove it from the pan. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the whipped Cream Cheese, shredded Cheddar Cheese, diced Jalapeños, and crumbled Bacon. Season with Garlic powder.
Spread the mixture on half of each tortilla and add the cooked Chicken. Fold the tortillas in half.
Heat a griddle or skillet over medium-low heat. Place the filled Tortillas on the griddle and cook until the tortillas are crispy and the filling is warmed through, adding oil as needed. Serve and enjoy!
