Make this simple bacon wrapped shrimp recipe for a crowd-pleasing appetizer or quick weeknight meal. The bacon crisps while the shrimp stays juicy, finished with a sweet honey glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 12 thin slices bacon, halved crosswise
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
  2. Pat the shrimp completely dry using paper towels. This step helps the bacon crisp.
  3. Wrap one piece of bacon around each shrimp, securing the end with a toothpick if necessary. Place the wrapped shrimp on the wire rack.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper to create the glaze.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes.
  6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the tops of the shrimp generously with half of the honey glaze.
  7. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp is cooked through.
  8. Remove from the oven and immediately brush with the remaining glaze. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra crispy bacon, you can briefly broil the shrimp for the last 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  • If you prefer a spicier flavor, add a small pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze mixture.
  • You can prepare the wrapped shrimp up to 4 hours ahead of time and keep them refrigerated before baking.
