Bacon wrapped shrimps

Image
This makes a great appetizer! Ingredients: a bag of shrimps (400g, size 31-40), thawed  a bag of bacon 1 tsp cooking wine 1/4 tsp salt 1 tsp ginger, chopped into bits Directions: Preheat oven to 400 F; Line a broiling pan with foil; lightly oil the surface of the top pan; Peel the shrimps, add cooking wine, ginger bits, and salt, mix and let it sit for 5 minutes; Cut the bacon strips into smaller pieces. For this size of shrimp, I cut one bacon strip into 3 and they wrap nicely; Wrap each shrimp with a cut strip of the bacon, start with the wider edge of the bacon. Best to wrap the shrimps all in one direction so they will line up neatly when you plate them; Place the wrapped shrimps on the broiling pan; mid-rackbake for 20 minutes;  Plate them quickly and serve hot to enjoy the crispiness of the bacon and the tenderness of the shrimp. Tip:  I use a broiling pan instead of a baking sheet, so that the oil and juice from the bacon has somewhere to go,
