Amazing Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Shrimp

“My father and his Chinese ‘brother’s’ recipe for the best deep fried shrimp, now famous in our town. If you have leftover bacon, don’t worry; you can deep fry it and that’s for you! For a sauce, ketchup and horseradish work great but these are great by them self!”


Ingredients:


  • 1 quart

    vegetable oil for frying

  • 32

    peeled and deveined medium shrimp, tail-on

  • 1 (4 ounce) can

    pickled jalapeno peppers, cut into slivers

  • 16 slices

    bacon, cut in half

  • 32

    toothpicks

Directions:


  • Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F ( 175 degrees C).

  • Cut the shrimp on the back, almost to the front. Stuff each shrimp with a sliver of jalapeno, then wrap with a half slice of bacon . Secure with a toothpick. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

  • Cook the shrimp in batches in the hot oil until the bacon crispy and golden brown , 2 to 3 minutes. Leave on a paper towel -lined plate before serving.
