Low-Carb Buffalo Chicken Jalapeno Poppers
This recipe is a fun combination of buffalo chicken wings and jalapeno poppers. It's a lovely snack you can prepare for the entire family (even the kids will love these) and serve with your favorite low-carb dips. It is an excellent snack you can add to your low-carb fall recipes, and it only takes about 20 minutes of your actual work (the oven will do the rest). This lovely low-carb fall snack recipe is best when served directly from the oven while still hot! Enjoy!
What size of peppers to use?
We used smaller jalapeno peppers for this recipe. That does take a little extra time, but you will get a lovely snack you can have between meals, completely fuss-free. However, you can use large jalapeno peppers; just increase the baking time for an additional 5 minutes (keep an eye on them after about 20 minutes).
How do you substitute ground chicken in this recipe?
If you can't find ground chicken in your local store, you can simply process the chicken breasts in your food processor until minced. You can also substitute the ground chicken with the same amount of ground turkey. The results will be fantastic!
How do you store the leftovers?
Store the leftovers in airtight containers and refrigerate for a few days. Unfortunately, these won't freeze well.

Stuff each half with the prepared mixture and arrange over the prepared baking tray. Bake for 20 minutes. We used small jalapeno peppers for this recipe, but you can use any size you have on hand. For larger peppers, increase the baking time to 25 minutes, but keep an eye on them after 20 minutes.Step 4
Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until nice and crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and drain. Set it aside.Step 5
