Steps:
- Toss the shrimp with the lemon juice and 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning in a medium bowl. Whisk the sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped pickles, the remaining 1 teaspoon Old Bay and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 7 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and discard all but 1 teaspoon of the fat in the skillet. Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer along with the liquid. Cook, flipping the shrimp halfway through, until opaque and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Lightly toast the potato bread and spread each slice with the sour cream mixture. Sandwich with the lettuce, tomatoes, shrimp, pickle slices and bacon. Serve with potato chips.

Steps:
- MAKE THE SAUCE: In a medium saucepan, heat the oil. Sweat the shallots for about 2 minutes. Do not brown.
- Deglaze the pan with the wine and vinegar and reduce slightly.
- Pour in the cream and reduce the sauce by half. Whisk in the butter and strain into a clean pan.
- Season with lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
- COOK THE SHRIMP: Sprinkle the vegetable oil over the shrimp. Grill the shrimp, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Do not overcook.
- Drain and cut each shrimp in half lengthwise.
- PREPARE THE SANDWICH: For each sandwich, spread a little mayonnaise on one slice of bread and arrange a little lettuce on the bread. Top with 3 slices of tomatoes, season lightly with salt and pepper, and arrange the bacon on the tomatoes. Top with the second slice of bread, a thin layer of mayonnaise and a little lettuce. Heat the shrimp in the lemon butter and arrange on the lettuce. Top with the third slice of bread and cut in half. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP BLT
This recipe originates from Food and Wine, my sister in law passed it along. It is FANTASTIC! Great as a salad on a bed of greens, served it on toasted sandwich rounds (the 100 cal ones) on croissants or as an hor d'oeuvre as originally intended on toasted baguette rounds.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, large shrimp.
- Do not overcook the shrimp; they should be cooked through but still slightly pink in the center.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the shrimp in a grill pan over medium heat.
- To make the BLT sandwich, use thick-cut bacon and ripe tomatoes.
- For a vegetarian version of the sandwich, omit the bacon and add grilled portobello mushrooms.
