In under 30 minutes, you can dress crispy bacon wrapped shrimp in brown sugar, paprika, and smoked red pepper for a dynamically delicious appetizer. This combinatioin of spicy, sweet, smooth, and crunchy will keep you grabbing for more.
Excellent!
Close.
I have been something similar for over 40 years but use BBQ sauce & on the grill with a cube of pineapple in the middle. 😁
Excellent! Because I like thick cut bacon, I didn't know if the bacon would be thoroughly cooked after 10 minutes. I opted to use pre-cooked bacon and the recipe turned out great! An excellent appetizer dish!
It bothers me when someone makes a bunch of changes to a recipe, then gives it a bad review. It bothers me more when someone give a recipe a bad review without even READING the recipe like happened here. Bacon and shrimp came together beautifully, although next time I'll use a bit less sugar. Nicely done!
Everyone at my party 🎉 RAVED ABOUT THIS APPETIZER👍
With common sense, I made it, It took me longer to pre-cook my bacon, and the actual shrimp wrapped bacon, but the results were awesome. It takes more time with thick bacon, but common sense is the key. I used Sam’s Club hickory smoked bacon and Schwan’s pre cooked shrimp. The ONLY complaint I had, my son said next time take the tails off the shrimp. 😃. I will definitely make this again.
We used raw jumbo shrimp and Costco bacon. The flavors of ground red pepper, paprika, brown sugar and salt were intoxicating. The family loved it!! Great game day appetizer or holiday appetizer. 😎
Anonymous - I regularly cook my (thick-cut) bacon in the oven at 375 for a total of about 22-24 minutes, turning it once. Since this recipe calls for thin (or regular) cut bacon, and it is precooked for 7 minutes or so, one may assume that the bacon would indeed be cooked properly after another 10 minutes. And, if you had ever cooked shrimp in a casserole or other oven preparation, you would know that it takes longer to get done than when sauteed in a hot pan. I had no qualms in making this recipe as written, and we found it to be delightful, the shrimp were tender and sweet and wonderfully set off by the spicy seasoning and crisp bacon.
Ok, so this is one of those recipes that makes me wonder, did these people actually use a test kitchen??? Bacon requires either high temp or a long time to cook; shrimp cooks very quickly. While this, in theory, sounds like a great combo, in actuality, NOT GOOD. Bleh.
