Ingredients:
- 8 slices of bacon (avoid the maple cured for this recipe)
- 8 jalapeños
- 16 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- ground black pepper
- chopped cilantro for garnish
- lime wedges for serving
Directions:
- Roast the jalapeños: remove the stem from each jalapeño and cut in half, remove the seeds. Put the jalapeños on a cookie sheet, drizzle with olive oil and put in a 400 degree oven for 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool so they can be handled easily.
- Prepare the bacon: cut the bacon in half and put on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 until half-cooked, only about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool so they can be handled easily.
- Assemble: place one strip of jalapeño on a shrimp, wrap with bacon. Secure individually with toothpick or secure several with a skewer. Season with pepper.
- Arrange the shrimp on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake in 400 degree oven until the shrimp is cooked, around 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with lime wedges!
- ENJOY!!!!
