Shrimp Wrapped in Bacon with Chili Butter Sauce

This is a knock off of Pioneer Woman's Scallop Wrapped Bacon with Chili Butter Sauce.

You will need:
1 package precooked medium shrimp (jumbo would work amazingly well too)
1 package bacon (DON'T get the thick cut bacon, it will only make your life hard)
toothpicks

For the Sauce:
2 Tbsp butter
1 tsp chili powder
dash of cayenne pepper

First thaw your shrimp in a bowl of warm water for a minute or so. Cut bacon in half, and then cut that in half again (I used about half of the bacon in the package). You should have little strips of bacon about 3 inches long. Wrap those suckers around the shrimp and secure each piece with a toothpick. Place each shrimp onto a baking dish (with sides, because it will get greasy) and stick it under the broiler for 5 minutes. Turn each piece of shrimp, drain the grease, and stick back under the broiler for an additional 5 minutes. While the bacon is cooking you can make the sauce. Take butter and place in a microwave safe bowl, heat for about 20 seconds in microwave, or until melted. Toss in chili powder, and a few dashes of cayenne pepper for a little extra "sumthin' sumthin' ". When the bacon is done, place onto a plate, and drizzle yummy butter over top.

Now that's amazing.

Chicken Pockets

I used a couple of different recipes, and just combined and concocted this tonight. It was a success, and I'll definitely be making it again. These are like chicken enchiladas, the only difference is how I rolled them. Instead of rolling them into an enchilada, I rolled and tucked the sides in (similar to a burrito).



Here is what you will need:

chicken (cut into cubes and cooked in a skillet)
1 can of cream of chicken soup
1/2 of a small onion
1 packet of taco seasoning
1/2 cup sour cream
1 clove of garlic chopped
tortillas
butter/olive oil
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Start by dicing chicken up into cubes and cook in a skillet with some olive oil. When chicken is done, place on plate covered with a paper towel to drain excess grease. In the same skillet melt 1 Tbsp butter, and place chopped onion and garlic into skillet to saute for about 2 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Next, add your taco seasoning packet, and place your chicken back into the skillet. Stir all ingredients together, and add 1 can of cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and 3/4 cup cheddar cheese (save the rest of the shredded cheese for the top). Lay your tortilla on a flat surface, and spoon chicken mixture into the center. Fold one end over mixture, fold both sides in, and then finish with folding the last side in (the tortilla will look like a square, or as close to one as you can get it!!) Place folded tortillas into a baking dish, and save a couple spoon fulls of the mixture for the top. Once all of the tortillas are into the baking dish, use the little of your chicken mixture that you have saved, and pour it onto the top of the tortillas. Spread it out and get as much covered as you can. Finish with sprinkling the remaining shredded cheese onto the top. Cook for 30-35 minutes.
