Clean the peppers, remove the veins, and make an L-shaped cut to fill them. Place inside a piping bag or pastry bag. If you don't have one, simply use a plastic bag and fill the peppers halfway. Drain the cans of tuna, place in a bowl, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Finish filling the peppers. Wrap the strips of bacon around each jalapeño pepper. Arrange on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 25 minutes at 180°C.

Tips

If you devein the peppers and let them soak for 30 minutes to 1 hour in saltwater, it will reduce the spiciness. First, place the cheese and then the tuna; this will prevent the cheese from spilling out when baking.
