Best Grilled Shrimp And Bacon With Lemons Recipes

OLD BAY MARINATED AND GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Juice half of the lemon and add the juice to a medium glass bowl. Finely grate the garlic and add to the bowl along with the Old Bay seasoning, olive oil and shrimp. Toss to combine.
• Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the remaining lemon half into wedges and reserve for serving.
• Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and put on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. In batches, cook the shrimp until lightly charred in spots on both sides and just cooked through, about 3 minutes total. Remove from the heat and transfer to a large plate.
• Serve the shrimp with the reserved lemon wedges and hot sauce.

BACON WRAPPED GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400˚F.
• Place halved bacon slices on a wire rack set over a foil-lined baking sheet.
• Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
• Remove bacon from oven and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl combine lemon juice, garlic, paprika, oregano, salt, and olive oil; whisk until thoroughly incorporated.
• Add shrimp to the lemon juice mixture; let stand about 10 minutes.
• Preheat your grill to medium-high.
• Starting at the tail, wrap each shrimp with 1 piece of bacon.
• Using a toothpick, secure the bacon to the shrimp.
• Grill for 10 to 12 minutes, or until bacon is crispy and shrimp is cooked through. Flip the shrimp over halfway through cooking.
• Garnish with parsley.
• Serve.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH BACON, TOMATO AND SCALLION VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Put the bacon in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the fat is rendered.
• When the bacon is just about done, heat the canola oil in a nonreactive skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and salt and pepper and cook, stirring, just until slightly softened. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to the skillet with the tomatoes and add the cilantro, vinegar, thyme and green onions. Cook, stirring, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside; keep warm.
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high for direct grilling.
• Brush the shrimp with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using two skewers at a time, thread four shrimp on the skewers near the tail and head ends--this makes it easier to flip the shrimp on the grill. Grill until slightly charred and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.
• Remove the shrimp from the skewers and top with the warm vinaigrette.

GRILLED SHRIMP AND BACON WITH LEMONS

Steps:

• Toss shrimp in a large nonreactive baking dish with zest and juice of 1 lemon, the Old Bay seasoning, and oil. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Heat grill to medium-high. Slice remaining lemon into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Grill lemon slices, shrimp, and bacon directly on grates until lemon slices are caramelized (2 to 3 minutes per side), shrimp are cooked through (about 3 minutes per side), and bacon is lightly charred and crisp (4 to 5 minutes per side). Transfer lemons and shrimp to a bowl, and the bacon to a plate. Let cool slightly.
• Tear bacon into 2-inch pieces, and add to bowl with lemons and shrimp. Toss until well combined.

GARLIC LIME BACON-WRAPPED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Whisk together the oil, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Toss the shrimp in the marinade, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat an indoor electric grill for medium-high heat.
• Remove the shrimp from the marinade, and shake off excess. Wrap each shrimp with a strip of chili pepper, then half a bacon slice. Secure with a toothpick. Repeat with remaining shrimp. Cook on preheated grill until the bacon is crisp, and the shrimp is hot, 6 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle the shrimp with diced avocado, and garnish with lime wedges to serve.

GRILLED HERB SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients and allow them to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
• Skewer the shrimp. I use 3 or 4 shrimp on a 12-inch skewer for dinner. Heat a grill with coals and brush the grill with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Grill the shrimp for only 1 1/2 minutes on each side.

GRILLED BBQ BACON SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium.
• Soak skewers in water while preparing the BBQ sauce. In a medium saucepan melt butter and saute onions and jalapeno, until tender. Season with cayenne, and salt and pepper. Add ginger, brown sugar, orange juice and ketchup in that order making sure to blend each ingredient completely before adding the next ingredient. Let simmer until the edges begin to caramelize, about 15 minutes. Set aside and let cool. Once cool, remove half of the sauce and reserve for dipping. The other half is for brushing on the shrimp when grilling. Cut bacon in thirds. Thread each shrimp onto a skewer, starting from the tail end. Bend the shrimp as you thread it so it lies in 1 straight line on the skewer, removing its natural curve. Wrap the center of each shrimp with a piece of bacon. Brush with BBQ sauce and place skewers with bacon, seam side down, onto the grill. Cook over medium heat until bacon crisps and shrimp is cooked through, about 8 minutes.

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat.
• In a small bowl, crush the garlic with the salt. Mix in cayenne pepper and paprika, and then stir in olive oil and lemon juice to form a paste. In a large bowl, toss shrimp with garlic paste until evenly coated.
