Makes 18 grills
Ingredients:
1 tub | 200 g Tre Stelle® Mini Mini Bocconcini Cheese, drained Marinade 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp | 5 mL smoked paprika 1 tbsp | 15 mL parsley, fined minced 1 tbsp | 15 mL olive oil 1 tsp | 5 mL balsamic vinegar 9 fresh jalapeno peppers 9 rashers thinly sliced bacon, cut into halves toothpicks for assembly
Instructions:
In a medium bowl combine Bocconcini Cheese with marinade ingredients; cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Cut the jalapeno peppers lengthwise, keeping the stems intact – remove seeds (we recommend wearing gloves). Place 2-3 Bocconcini into the halves of each pepper, wrap with bacon and secure with toothpicks. Preheat barbeque or indoor grill. Place peppers on grill and barbeque, cut halves up, until bacon begins to crisp and peppers soften. Carefully turn peppers open side down and quickly grill only until cheese begins to melt.
