Tips:
- Use large shrimp: The size of the shrimp makes a big difference in this dish. Large shrimp are more flavorful and have a better texture than smaller shrimp.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the shrimp for just a few minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque.
- Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple has a much better flavor than canned pineapple. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use frozen pineapple, but be sure to thaw it before using it.
- Use a good quality smoked bacon: The bacon adds a lot of flavor to this dish, so it's important to use a good quality bacon.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The shrimp will get tough if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
This Tiger Shrimp with Pineapple and Smoked Bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The shrimp are cooked to perfection and the pineapple and bacon add a sweet and smoky flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone who tries it.
