Category: Seafood

24 large Florida shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 oz Asiago cheese

Wash the shrimp and pat them dry. Butterfly shrimp by cutting lengthwise along the back -- do not cut all the way through, leaving the tail section intact. Grate the cheese and mix with jalapeno pepper. Cut each piece of bacon in half.

Fill the open section of each shrimp with about 1 teaspoon cheese mix. Wrap each shrimp with a piece of bacon, and secure with a wooden pick. Place shrimp on a broiler pan and broil until bacon is crisp. Turn the shrimp and broil until bacon is done.
