  3. Cut each jalapeno piece into 3 long strips.

  6. Cover the jalapenos and shrimp with boiling water in a casserole dish or heat resistant bowl.
  7. Let sit for 60-90 seconds then rince with cold water and pat dry.
  8. Partially cook the bacon, to reduce grease.

  12. Wrap the bacon around each shrimp and secure with a toothpick.
