Tips:
- You can use any type of shrimp you like for this recipe.
- If you don’t have bacon, you can use prosciutto or pancetta instead.
- You can also add other spices to the olive oil, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve the bacon-wrapped shrimp with your favorite dipping sauce, such as cocktail sauce or tartar sauce.
Here are some additional tips for making the best bacon-wrapped shrimp:
- Use large shrimp. The larger the shrimp, the more bacon you can wrap around them, and the more flavorful they will be.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. If you put too many bacon-wrapped shrimp on the baking sheet, they will not cook evenly.
- Baste the bacon-wrapped shrimp with the olive oil halfway through cooking. This will help to keep them moist and prevent the bacon from burning.
- Serve the bacon-wrapped shrimp immediately. They are best served hot and crispy.
