ingredients
1 pound jenny-o turkey chorizo
8 slices center cut bacon, cooked and diced
6 green onions, sliced
⅓ cup finely shredded colby and jack cheese
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
10 – 15 cracks of black pepper
pinch of salt
1 bag of mini peppers, cut in half lengthwise, seeded and deveined
My bag had 16 peppers so I got 32 halves out of one bag.
½ – ⅓ cup seasoned panko crumbs
directions
Step 1:
Prepare the peppers, green onions, and bacon.
Step 2:
Next, take the cooked and diced bacon, diced green onions, seasonings, cheese and mix in with the uncooked turkey chorizo until well incorporated. This is the filling for the peppers.
Step 3:
Take about 1 - 2 tablespoons of filling and slightly mound it into the pepper halves.
Once they are all filled, take the pepper halves and dip them in the seasoned panko so that it sticks to the filling.
Step 4:
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Step 5:
Place peppers in air fryer panko side up and spray tops with pan spray.
Step 6:
Bake at 400°F for 6 - 8 minutes, or until panko is golden brown, and the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 165°F.
Step 7:
Serve immediately and enjoy!
