In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder. Use a sturdy spatula to blend them until the mixture looks like soft white clouds.

Fold in your diced jalapeños and green onions. If you want a more smoky profile, you can roast the peppers beforehand until the skins are charred and fragrant.

Gently toss in the cooked chicken breast. You want to coat every piece of meat in that creamy dressing until it is glistening.

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and about three quarters of the crumbled bacon. Savings some bacon for the top ensures you have a beautiful presentation.

Add a squeeze of lemon juice, then salt and pepper. Give it one last gentle stir until it looks perfectly chunky and unified. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least thirty minutes to allow the jalapeño poppers chicken vibe to fully manifest.
