Ingredients
- 24 x Shrimp ( usually use the med size prawns, fresh is better)
- 4 slc Bacon
- 1 lrg head of garlic
- 4 x lemons and limes
- 1 tsp dry red pepper
Method
- Peel and devein the shrimp.
- Marinate them with all the garlic (peeled and crushed), the red pepper and sufficient of equal amounts of fresh lime and lemon juice to cover all the shrimp.
- Marinate in the 'fridge for 3-6 hrs.
- I usually do this in the morning and let them go all day.
- After marinating, drain the shrimp (If you are grilling outside I recommend which you save the marinade and baste with it) and cut the bacon strips in half.
- Wrap the bacon around the shrimp and secure with a toothpick.
- Either grill over mesquite basting with the reserved marinade (the favored method) or possibly broil in the oven.
- You may pre-grill these and chill, then hot in the broiler prior to serving.
- In fact, I think they even taste better which way!
