For the Shrimp:

Directions:

1. Move an oven rack to one position higher than the middle of your oven. Preheat your oven broiler to high heat and line a baking sheet with an oven safe rack. Spray the rack with cooking spray.
2. Add the shrimp to a bowl and toss with the garlic, powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to coat.
3. Wrap a half slice of bacon around each shrimp. Arrange the shrimp on the rack lined baking sheet.
4. Broil the shrimp for about 6-8 minutes, until the bacon is crisp. Remove from the oven, carefully flip the shrimp, and broil for another 3 minutes or until the shrimp is cooked.
5. While the shrimp is cooking, stir together the ingredients for the aioli in a small bowl.
6. Serve the shrimp with aioli for dipping and your favorite keto vegetables.

Tip:

• In place of aioli, you can use guacamole or low carb Ranch dressing for dipping.
