Ingredients

  • 2 (5oz) Wild Caught Albacore in Water Pouch
  • 1 Jalapeño, diced
  • 1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp liquide smoke
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 6 Anaheim pepper, cored and seeded
  • 6 strips of bacon
  • 3 bell peppers
  • 1 small red onion
  • 2 tbsp of vegetable oil
  • 2 cups guacamole (optional)
  • 1 cup sour cream (optional)
  • 6 hotdog buns

Directions

Combine tuna, mayo, shredded cheese, jalapeño, liquid smoke, salt and pepper in a large bowl.

De-stem, de-seed and halve Anaheim Peppers.

Spoon some of the tuna mix into the pepper halves and  wrap each pepper with a strip of bacon, securing with toothpicks if necessary.

Slice bell peppers and red onion into thin strips.

Heat up a skillet coated with 1 tbsp vegetable oil to medium-high heat. Once hot, sauté the veggies until browned, adding salt and pepper to taste.

Remove the veggies and add another tablespoon of oil, letting that heat up a bit before placing the stuffed chilis in, face side down.

Rotate the wrapped peppers until bacon is cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove from heat.

Spread  guacamole on a hot dog bun. Place peppers in the bun and garnish with the veggies, a drizzle of sour cream, and shredded cheese.
