We made these one night when we were feeling adventurous. Sorry the picture isn't the best. I think I should tell you that the recipe was so-so. Perhaps it was the bbq sauce or the way we cooked them (probably would have been better on the grill) or the fact I was pregnant at the time.
I'll give you the recipe anyways:
Ingredients:
30 fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon minced garlic
30 large shrimp, peeled, tails intact
15 thin bacon slices, cut in half
Prepare the shrimp: Mix the basil, cheese and garlic in a bowl. Slice down the back of each shrimp and remove the vein; fill the cut with 1/2 teaspoon of the basil mixture. Wrap each shrimp with 1/2 slice bacon and secure with a toothpick, or tuck the loose end of the bacon under.
Brush barbecue sauce over shrimp, and bake at 400° for 8 to 9 minutes.
Let me know if you have better luck!
