Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    Peel and devein the jumbo shrimp, leaving the tails on for presentation. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Stuff the Shrimp

    Take a piece of cream cheese and place it inside each shrimp. Top the cream cheese with a slice of pickled jalapeño.

  3. 3

    Wrap with Bacon

    Wrap each stuffed shrimp with a slice of bacon, securing it with a toothpick if necessary.

Grilling

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C).

  2. 5

    Grill the Shrimp

    Place the bacon-wrapped shrimp on the grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are cooked through (opaque and firm).

  3. 6

    Drizzle with Hot Honey

    During the last minute of grilling, drizzle the hot honey over the shrimp to add flavor and a sweet glaze.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Remove the shrimp from the grill and let them rest for a minute. Arrange them on a serving platter.

  2. 8

    Garnish

    If desired, sprinkle fresh cilantro on top and serve with lime wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
