Bacon Wrapped Shrimp Appetizers

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

2. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a flavorful seasoning blend.

3. Take each shrimp and sprinkle a generous pinch of the seasoning mixture over them, ensuring they are well coated.

4. Next, take a half-slice of bacon and wrap it around each seasoned shrimp, securing it in place with a toothpick. Repeat this process for all the shrimp.

5. Place the bacon-wrapped shrimp on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are evenly spaced to allow for even cooking.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp is cooked through. You can also broil them for an additional 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.

7. Once done, remove the toothpicks carefully from the bacon-wrapped shrimp before serving to avoid any mishaps.

8. Arrange the Bacon Wrapped Shrimp on a serving platter and watch as your guests indulge in these irresistible appetizers.
