In a bowl, add all the ingredients listed under “Bacon Jalapeño Filling” and mix thoroughly.
Transfer the mixture to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
Press and spread it into an even layer.
Place in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Mix together all ingredients listed under “Seasoned Breadcrumbs” and set aside.
Whisk together all ingredients listed under “Egg Wash” and set aside.
Once the bacon jalapeño filling is firm, cut into equal pieces.
Working in batches, dip each piece into the egg wash, then into the seasoned breadcrumbs, back into the egg wash, and finish with a final dredge in the breadcrumbs.
Make sure to press the breadcrumbs firmly onto each piece to help them adhere.
Once coated, fry for 3–4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve immediately with a side of remoulade sauce and enjoy!
Note: If preparing ahead, you can freeze the breaded pieces until ready to fry.
If frying from frozen, cook for 5–6 minutes, or until golden brown.
