Serving Size : 6
2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 clove garlic, mashed
1 teaspoon snipped fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 red onion, sliced
Salt and pepper
18 slices bacon, cut in half
In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the bacon. Cover and chill for 8 to 12 hours. Remove the shrimp and set aside. Pour the liquid into a small saucepan.
Over medium-low heat, cook the liquid until reduced to about 1 cup.
Position the broiler rack 6 inches from the heat and preheat the broiler. Lightly grease a broiler tray.
Wrap each shrimp with 1/2 a strip of bacon and lay on the tray, seasoning each with salt and pepper before rolling up. Broil for 3 to 4 minutes or until the bacon is crisp.
To serve:
Place the liquid in a dipping cup in the center of a plate or tray, arrange a bed of lettuce leaves on the tray and place the shrimp on the leaves with toothpicks on the side.
