  • Preheat the oven to 400°.
  • Cut the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out and discard the seeds and ribs from the peppers. Set the halved peppers aside.
  • Stir together the cheddar, cream cheese, mayonnaise, pimientos, onion, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt, paprika, and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir together the panko breadcrumbs, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt, paprika, and pepper, as well as olive oil in a small bowl.
  • Fill each pepper half with some of the cheese mixture, and place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops of the peppers evenly with the panko mixture.
  • Bake until the tops are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the peppers from the oven and top them with bacon and chives.
