An awesome appetizer to serve to your guests at a dinner party or cookout. I found this one on the internet Ingredients:
32 large shrimp, peeled and deveined, leaving tails |
basil stuffing |
32 basil leaves, coarsely chopped |
2 tsp. grated parmesan cheese |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
16 slices bacon, cut in half |
3/4 to 1 c. barbecue sauce |
Directions:
1. Butterfly each shrimp by cutting a slit along its back. Rinse shrimp and pat dry with paper towels.
2. For Stuffing: Combine basil, Parmesan cheese and garlic in small bowl. Place stuffing in slits. Leaving tail exposed, wrap each shrimp with half slice of bacon, tucking in ends.
3. Heat oven to 400 F. Place shrimp on baking sheet with tails pointing up. Bake until shrimp turn opaque, about 15 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
4. Dip shrimp into barbecue sauce and place on grill until sauce caramelizes or return to baking sheet and bake until sauce is caramelized, about 3 minutes
