Honey Glazed Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp

Source of Recipe


From "The Outdoor Table" by April McKinney



List of Ingredients



• 10 to 12 slices bacon
  
• 1 pound large shrimp
  
• 2 tablespoons honey
  
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  
• ½ teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  






Instructions



1. In a large skillet cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it just begins to brown. It should be pliable but not crisp. Remove the bacon, and drain on paper towels.
   
   
2. When cool enough to handle, tear or cut each piece into halves. Wrap the bacon pieces around the shrimp, and secure the bacon with toothpicks.
   
   
3. Heat the grill to medium heat. Mix together the honey, mustard, and chipotle chili powder. Grill the bacon-wrapped shrimp for 2 minutes on each side, and then turn off the burners or move the shrimp to indirect heat. Brush the honey glaze on each side of the shrimp, and remove them from the grill. Serve warm.
