Chef's tips for making this recipe

Wear gloves when preparing jalapeños to avoid irritation. For a spicier kick, leave a few seeds.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these poppers hot, straight from the oven, so the bacon remains crispy. Pair them with a ranch dip or some salsa for a refreshing contrast. These bites are ideal for a successful Super Bowl night, but they're just as delightful for any other festive occasion.
