- Preheat oven to broil.
- Make the seasoning blend by combining the ingredients in a small bowl. Set this aside.
- Make the dipping sauce by combining the ranch dressing with cilantro in a medium bowl.
- Cook the bacon in a frying pan over medium-high heat, but do not cook it all the way to crispy. You want undercooked bacon which, when cold, will easily wrap around the shrimp. Cook the bacon about 3 min per side, and do not let it brown. When the bacon is done lay it on paper towels to drain and cold.
- Shell the shrimp, leaving the last segment of the shell and the tail. Remove the dark vein from the back of the shrimp, and then cut down into the back of the shrimp, without cutting all the way through, so which the shrimp is nearly butterflied open. This will make a pocket for the pepper and cheese.
- Pour 1 c. of water into a small bowl. Add in the shrimp and jalapeno peppers and microwave for 60 to 90 seconds. Shrimp should be starting to hard up and change color. Immediately pour the water out of the bowl, remove the jalapeno slices and pour cool water over the shrimp. Place the the shrimp and jalapeno pepper slices onto paper towels to drain off excess water.
- Build the appetizer by cutting the jalapeno slices in half and removing the seeds. You should now have 6 jalapeno slices - you'll need 5 of these. Place one slice into the slit on the back of a shrimp. Cut an inch-long chunk of cheese (about 1/4-inch thick), and place it on the jalapeno slice. Wrap a piece of bacon around the shrimp, starting where the cheese is. Start wrapping with the thinnest end of the bacon. Go 1 1/2 times around the shrimp and then cut off the excess bacon and slide a skewer through the shrimp, starting with the end where the cheese is and piercing the cut end of the bacon on the other side. Repeat with the remaining shrimp and slide them onto the skewer with the tails facing the same direction.
- Put the skewer onto a baking sheet or possibly broiler pan and sprinkle a very light coating of the seasoning blend over the shrimp, then broil for 3 to 4 min or possibly till the bacon begins to brown and the cheese begins to ooze. Serve over a bed of rice if you like. Feed the left over bacon pcs to the dog while you scarf out on the shrimp.
- This recipe yields 2 servings as an appetizer.
