BACON-WRAPPED SHRIMP WITH CHUNKY TOMATILLO SALSA AND TOMATO VINA
Here is a Southwestern inspired dish from Tyler Florence. Bacon-wrapped shrimp is a delicious combination as it is, but pairing it with the salsa and vinaigrette puts this recipe over-the-top! This shrimp recipe also works well on the grill. Serving it with margaritas and/or beer wouldn't be a bad idea! Note: You can make the salsa and vinaigrette ahead of time and keep refrigerated. You could also prep the shrimp and wrap with bacon ahead of time. That way, it will be a breeze when it comes time for dinner.

Steps:
- Tomatillo Salsa:.
- For the tomatillo salsa, toss the tomatillos, avocados, jalapenos, cilantro and onion together in a large bowl.
- Add the lime juice and canola oil, and turn to coat; season with salt and black pepper.
- Turn the mixture over a few times until the avocados are slightly mashed and the salsa is creamy.
- Cover and refrigerate while you prepare everything else.
- Tomato Vinaigrette:.
- Puree the tomato, chipotle, garlic, lime zest, lime juice, sherry vinegar, sugar and salt in a blender until smooth.
- Pour in the oil and puree again until emulsified and slightly thickened.
- Refrigerate.
- Shrimp:.
- Wrap each shrimp in a piece of bacon, overlapping the ends so they stick together.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat, drizzle with a 1/2 count of oil and heat just to the smoking point.
- Lay the shrimp in the pan (do this in batches if the pan is crowded) and saute until the bacon is crisp, tossing so the shrimp cook evenly.
- To Serve:.
- Spoon a mound of the tomatillo salsa on each plate.
- Drizzle a pool of the tomato vinaigrette on another area of the plate and top with 5 shrimp (per plate).
- Garnish with the green onion and cilantro leaves.

SMOKED CHILE BUTTER-BRUSHED SHRIMP WITH TOMATILLO SALSA
Steps:
- For the Smoked Chile Butter: Place ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour. Remove 20 minutes before using.
- For the Tomatillo Salsa: Place the halved tomatillos and the lime juice in a blender and blend until smooth. Place the coarsely chopped tomatillos, the onion and the jalapeno in a bowl, add the tomatillo mixture and toss to coat. Add the olive oil and honey and season with salt and pepper. Fold in the cilantro just before serving.
- For the Shrimp: Preheat grill or grill pan. Grill the shrimp on both sides for 2 to 3 minutes, brushing with the butter every 30 seconds. Remove shrimp to a platter and immediately brush with the remaining butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve the Tomatillo Salsa alongside.
TANGY TOMATILLO SHRIMP
Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add the chopped chiles and 1/2 of the garlic and cook until the peppers start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatillos and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the tomatillos begin to break down and release some liquid, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Transfer the tomatillo sauce to your blender, puree, and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, season them with some salt and pepper and the remaining chopped garlic. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often. Add the tomatillo sauce and simmer until the shrimp are curled and opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve sprinkled with the cilantro.
BACON WRAPPED SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. In a bowl, stir together the chopped orange, chile, scallions, cilantro, olive oil, and salt and pepper.
- Wrap each shrimp in a section of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Put the shrimp on a baking sheet and broil, turning once, until the bacon is crisp and the shrimp is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes each side. To serve, lay a lettuce leaf on the cutting board. Remove the toothpick from 1 of the cooked shrimp and center the shrimp on the lettuce leaf. Spoon a little of the citrus sauce on top, wrap it all up in the lettuce like a burrito, and put it seam-side down on a plate. Keep going in the same way to wrap all of the shrimp. Serve hot.
SHRIMP IN TOMATILLO AND HERB SAUCE
This fragrant, pungent shrimp dish is an adaptation of a dish from Veracruz. In the authentic dish the herbal flavor comes from hoja santa, an aniselike Mexican herb that isn't easy to find in the United States. I've created a flavor that is reminiscent of hoja santa by combining basil, tarragon and mint.

Steps:
- Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle with a generous pinch of salt and grind to a paste. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and blend together.
- Preheat the broiler. Cover a baking sheet with foil and place the tomatillos on top, stem side down. Place under the broiler at the highest rack setting and broil two to five minutes, until charred on one side. Turn over and broil on the other side for two to five minutes, until charred on the other side. Remove from the heat and transfer to a blender, tipping in any juice that may have accumulated on the baking sheet. Add the chilies, basil, mint and tarragon and blend until smooth. Season to taste.
- Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy saucepan and add the shrimp. Cook on one side for one minute, then, using tongs, turn the shrimp over and cook on the other side for one minute. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate.
- Add the garlic paste to the hot pan and cook, stirring, for another 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. Add the tomatillo mixture, stir together, turn the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring often, for five minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly. Return the shrimp to the pan, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, for about three minutes, until the sauce coats the shrimp and the shrimp is tender but still moist. Taste, adjust salt and serve.

BACON-WRAPPED SHRIMP
Who ever first thought of wrapping something in bacon is a genius. The trick to doing this right is finding the thinnest sliced bacon you can. You want the bacon to get crisp without having to cook the shrimp to death. The Oscar Mayer brand is a nice thin one, however if you can find a better smoked bacon like applewood or something, go for it. I find that making a sauce for these is entirely unnecessary. I mean, you got the bacon... hard to top that! When it comes to your shrimp, try to get wild shrimp as opposed to farm raised. You will taste the difference.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- If your shrimp are not deveined when you buy them, use kitchen shears to cut down the back of the shrimp (the top or longer side) and remove the shell. You can leave the tail on or off, your preference (I remove it). With a pairing knife, slice into the shrimp along the backside and remove the vein if you see one.
- Also do not forget to remove the second vein along the bottom of the shrimp! You won't have to make a very deep cut there, just a slight score and you can scrape that smaller vein out. Note that if your shrimp did come deveined from the market, it will still have this smaller vein everytime so do remove it. Then rinse the shrimp under cold running water and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Lay a slice of bacon out on your cutting board and start wrapping the tail end of the shrimp at the small end of the bacon. As you tightly wrap, overlap each layer of the bacon until you get to the end. If you get to the end of the shrimp when you're halfway through the bacon, you're wrapping it too wide, try again.
- I like to sprinkle a tiny bit of kosher salt on each side, but that is my preference.
- Heat a heavy bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. If you use a cast iron skillet, you won't need any oil as the shrimp will not stick, otherwise add just enough to coat the bottom. Sear the shrimp on each side for maybe 30 seconds and then finish them in the oven for about 6-8 minutes.
- Eat them with a knife and fork and enjoy!
