Instructions
- Wrap a ½ strip of bacon around the center of the peeled and deveined shrimp.
- Place a toothpick right through the top and the center of the shrimp through the bacon. Place in a large bowl.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, mirin, garlic, and sliced green onions until combined.
- Add ¼ cup to 1/3 cup of the honey-soy sauce to the bowl with the shrimp and gently fold together using a spoon to combine. Reserve the remaining honey-soy sauce to the side.
- Next, add the neutral-flavored oil to a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat and heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until the oil is hot but not smoking.
- Place the shrimp bacon seam down and cook for 2 to 4 minutes per side or until the bacon is browned and crispy, and the shrimp is almost done. You will most likely need to cook these in batches.
- Add the remaining honey-soy mixture to the pan, along with any batch cooked bacon wrapped shrimp, and mix while cooking over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Serve the shrimp on a plate or platter with or without the toothpick.
- Drizzle some of the hot honey-soy sauce over top of the shrimp.
- Garnish with additional sliced green onions.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: While these are meant to be eaten immediately, you can keep them warm on a sheet tray with a rack in the oven at low temperatures (165° to 200°).
- How to Store: Cover and keep the shrimp in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They will freeze, covered after being cooked for up to 3 months. See chef notes on freezing raw.
- How to Reheat: Add the desired amount of bacon-wrapped shrimp to a cookie sheet tray lined with parchment paper and heat at 350° for 4-5 minutes or until hot. If reheating frozen and cooked, place them on a cookie sheet tray lined with parchment paper and heat at 350° for 13-15 minutes or until hot.
- You can use frozen shrimp if they’ve been thawed.
