Preparation

Shrimp Preparation

1. Prepare Shrimp

In a bowl, mix the prepared horseradish with salt and black pepper. Gently split the shrimp down the back without cutting all the way through, creating a pocket for the filling.

2. Stuff Shrimp

Fill each shrimp pocket with about 1 tablespoon of the horseradish mixture, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

3. Wrap with Bacon

Take one bacon strip and wrap it around each stuffed shrimp, securing it with a toothpick if necessary. Repeat for all shrimp.

Cooking

4. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

5. Bake Shrimp

Place the wrapped shrimp on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are cooked through.

Horseradish Mayo Dipping Sauce

6. Prepare Sauce

In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

7. Chill Sauce

Refrigerate the sauce for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
