    Title: Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp
    Categories: Seafood, Pork, Citrus, Chilies
    Yield: 12 servings

    MMMMM-------------------------BRINE (OPT------------------------------
    1/4 c Kosher salt
    1/4 c Sugar
    4 c Water
    1 c Ice

    MMMMM--------------------BACON-WRAPPED SHRIMP-------------------------
    1 lb (U-12) raw, peeled, deveined
    - shrimp; tails on
    2 tb Extra virgin olive oil
    Zest from 1 lime
    2 tb Lime juice
    1/2 ts Chipotle powder
    10 sl Thin bacon; halved *

    * (half as many pieces of bacon as there are shrimp)

    BRINE THE SHRIMP (OPTIONAL, BUT RECOMMENDED): Whisk the
    salt, sugar, and water until the salt and sugar
    dissolve. Add the ice and the shrimp, and let sit for 30
    minutes (no longer). Remove the shrimp from the brine.

    PREPARE GRILL OR HEAT OVEN: Prepare grill on high,
    direct heat (if grilling) or set the oven @ 400+|F/205+|C.
    If grilling and using thin bamboo or wood skewers, soak
    them in water first for 30 minutes.

    SEASON THE SHRIMP: Mix together in a small bowl the lime
    zest, lime juice, olive oil, and chipotle powder. Stir
    the shrimp into the lime chipotle mixture; make sure
    each piece is well coated.

    PARTIALLY COOK THE BACON: Spread the bacon pieces out
    over several layers of paper towels on a microwave-safe
    plate. Cover with another layer of paper towel.
    Microwave on high until the bacon fat begins to melt but
    the bacon is still somewhat pliable, about 1 1/2 to 2
    minutes.

    WRAP THE SHRIMP WITH BACON: Working one at a time, wrap
    a half piece of partially cooked bacon around each piece
    of shrimp.

    PREP THE SHRIMP FOR COOKING: If you are grilling, thread
    the shrimp onto skewers.

    If you are using the oven, secure each the bacon onto
    the shrimp with toothpicks. Place the bacon-wrapped
    shrimp on a foil-lined baking pan. Brush remaining lime
    chipotle mixture on the outside of the bacon-wrapped
    shrimp.

    GRILL OR BAKE THE SHRIMP: Grill uncovered for 3 minutes
    on each side (less or more time depending on the heat of
    your grill), or bake in the oven for 8 to 11 minutes, or
    until the bacon is lightly browned and the shrimp is
    cooked through.
