How to Make Bacon Wrapped Shrimp With Chipotle Barbecue Sauce
- Soak 5 to 8 bamboo skewers in water for at least 20 minutes.
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until halfway cooked, about 4 minutes per side. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels; set aside to cool slightly.
- Wrap a piece of bacon around the middle of each shrimp.
- Secure each bacon-wrapped shrimp onto a skewer, threading the skewer through the bacon to hold it in place. Thread 3-5 shrimp onto each skewer.
- In a blender, combine barbecue sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper (if using), and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
- Set aside about half of the chipotle barbecue sauce for dipping.
- Preheat grill, grill pan, or broiler to medium-high heat.
- Grill or broil shrimp skewers for 5 minutes, basting once with the chipotle barbecue sauce when they begin to turn pink.
- Flip skewers, baste again, and grill or broil for another 4 minutes, or until shrimp are cooked through and bacon is crispy.
- Serve immediately with extra chipotle barbecue sauce for dipping.
