Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F. Set a cooling rack inside a half-sheet pan.

Gently toss the shrimp with 1/2 cup hot sauce in a large mixing bowl. Marinate for 15 minutes.

Cut bacon in thirds length-wise. Wrap around each piece of shrimp, and secure with a toothpick.

Arrange shrimp on the cooling-rack-lined half-sheet pan. Bake about 20 minutes or until bacon is crispy, flipping halfway through cooking.

Brush hot shrimp with remaining hot sauce.

Serve with blue cheese or ranch dressing. Garnish with green onion, if using.
