How many of you enjoy eating seafood? More specifically, shrimp? Our family eats a lot of fish and seafood and it’s on our dinner menu at least once every week. I’m a big lover of crab and shrimp, while my husband enjoys oysters and saltwater fish. What kind of seafood do you enjoy eating and how often do you enjoy it?

I love bacon and I love shrimp. I just wonder if the baking/broiling for 18 minutes would overcook the shrimp.
I really like this combination. The bacon would infuse itself into the shrimp plus if you were grilling it wouldnt burn quickly. These would make for some fancy superbowl food, I love it.
This sounds so good. I cannot eat shellfish so I need to substitute something. Maybe I can make it with meatballs. That sounds so good to me. Thank you for the idea.
I’ll take your favorite seafood AND your husband’s. I like all kinds. I had shrimp scampi yesterday.
I love eating seafood and also try to have it once a week if I can. I love shrimp, crab and lobster so much. This recipe sounds so good and would be perfect for a party thank you for sharing this one.
