How To Make shrimp stuffed jalapenos

  • 1
    Cut the stems off the jalapenos and remove as much of the seeds and veins as you wish. The more removed, the less heat you will get.
  • 2
    Mix together all other ingredients, minus the bacon, until smooth. Add as much of the spices as you wish. We like it spicy.
  • 3
    Stuff each jalapeno with the shrimp mixture. Wrap each jalapeno with a slice of bacon. We don't have a "holder" to keep them upright so we lay them on the grill grate.

    We cooked ours on our Traeger grill for just over an hour at 250*.

    Side note: We used one shrimp per pepper.

    Another way to make this is to half the peppers and stuff each half and wrap it with half a piece of bacon for each. Temp and time would be about the same. Just watch for the bacon to be brown and crispy.
