Grilled shrimp wrapped in bacon
Description
Instead of an open grill, you can cook the shrimp on a grill pan or in the oven on a rack. Choose large (king) shrimp, marinate them in your favorite herbs or other marinade, then wrap them in bacon slices and cook until golden brown. You can skewer them individually or place several on one skewer. Serve the appetizer cold.
