Recipe for the day ~ Bacon Wrapped Barbecue Chicken


Bacon Wrapped Barbecue Chicken
(Courtesy of All Recipes)

Ingredients:
16 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 slices bacon
Barbecue seasoning ~ to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450
Wrap shrimp with 1/2 slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick
Be sure and use the large shrimp (the cooking time for the shrimp and bacon are similar)
If you use medium-sized shrimp, you may want to precook the bacon a little (over cooked shrimp are tough and rubbery)
Line a jelly roll pan with extra heavy duty foil and place baking rack in the pan
Place the shrimp on the rack and sprinkle heavily with the barbecue seasoning then turn and do the same for the other side
Let the shrimp sit for 15 minutes
The bacon will turn from a creamy white to a little opaque and the seasonings will soak in
Cook the bacon for about 10 to 15 minutes
The rack keeps the shrimp from sitting in the draining bacon fat (Plus it's easier to clean when you are done)
