Barbecue sauce is one of our favorite sauces/condiments. We love the balance of sweet, tangy, and smoky. This Barbecue Bacon Wrapped Shrimp dish combines plump, juicy shrimp with savory bacon and a smoky, slightly spicy barbecue sauce. It’s succulent and satisfying and a great dinner or snack option. This surf-and-turf dish is a definite crowd-pleaser!

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. For easier cleanup, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Whisk together the barbecue sauce ingredients and cook in a saucepan for about 5 minutes. Put ½ cup of the sauce into a bowl and set the rest aside for later (recipe makes ¾ cup sauce).

Partially cook the bacon for 3-5 minutes in a pan over medium heat. Set aside to cool. Note: partially cooking the bacon ensures that it’ll get fully cooked and slightly crispy later, without making you overcook the shrimp in the oven.

Wrap each shrimp with a piece of bacon and secure the ends of the bacon to the shrimp with a toothpick.

Using a brush, distribute ½ cup of the barbecue sauce onto all of the shrimp.

Bake shrimp for 10 minutes.

Remove shrimp from the oven and flip each shrimp over. Brush with the remaining barbecue sauce and broil the shrimp on high for 1 to 2 minutes.

Place the shrimp on a rack to cool before plating and garnishing with chives.
