See Roasted Peppers: How to Roast a Pepper on a Gas Range to roast the jalapeno on a gas range. I've seen oven roasted recipes all over the internet. Two cooking methods provided: oven and grilling. Ingredients:
2 whole jalapenos, roasted, skinless, cut in half and deseeded |
4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless (about 4 ounces each) |
garlic salt |
fresh cracked pepper |
4 ounces colby cheese or 4 ounces monterey jack cheese or 4 ounces gouda cheese, cut into 4 pieces |
4 slices bacon |
Directions:
1. Flatten chicken breasts to approx 1/4 thickness. Season both sides of chicken with garlic salt and pepper. 2. Divide and place sliced smoked jalapenos on each breast with cheese. Fold over the chicken and secure with a tooth pick or two. Then wrap each chicken breast with bacon. 3. Brown rolls over medium heat until bacon just begins to crisp. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes. 4. Grilling Method: Skip step #3. Grill on all sides until chicken and bacon are cooked through, being careful because the cheese will melt and seep out. Watch for flare ups from bacon fat. |
