Shrimp On A Stick Recipe


Shrimp On A Stick Recipe
Without the sauce a low carb delight! Really good and you can change the cheese to get different flavor combinations.

Ingredients
  • 24 large (15-24 ct) peeled deveined shrimp, leave the tail on
  • 12 slices of cheese cut from the bar about 1/2 inch thick, you want a plank of cheese about 3/4 inch wide, 2 inches long.
  • 12 slices of bacon, (cooked for one minute in the microwave)
  • 3/4 cup of apricot preserves
  • 1 tablespoon of dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon of seasoned rice wine vinegar
  • generous pinch of red pepper flakes

Directions
  1. Preheat broiler (500) degrees.
  2. Sandwich cheese of choice between two of the shrimp, wrap with bacon and secure with a long tooth pick or short skewer.
  3. Place on a rack sprayed with cooking spray and broil 4 minutes per side until bacon is crispy. Let the fat drip away and feel very virtuous.
  4. Serve with sauce made of apricot preserves (zap in microwave for 1 minute at 40 percent power) mixed with vinegar, mustard and hot red pepper flakes.
  5. Cheese flavors that we like a lot are smoked gouda, extra sharp white cheddar and a jalapeno monterey jack (my favorite). Don't try a processed cheese food, it doesn't work.

There is a severe ooze of cheese out of the preparation method.....one stick will not hold the bacon in place and the cheese ooozes out. I think this must be altered with two toothpicks and have the bacon enclosing the whole thing like a pocket. Seriously we were pulling the melted cheese of the broiler pan and eating with our fingers and it was supposed to be in between the shrimp. Must practice this recipe a few more times to see if I can get it right.
