Mexican Filled Shrimp

  1. Place the open shrimp over a flat surface and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Fill each shrimp on the open back part with 1 tablespoons manchego cheese.
  3. Close the shrimp and secure them by rolling around them a slice of bacon.
  4. Secure with toothpicks and take them to the fridge 2-3 hours.
  5. Note: you can cut thin strips of the cheese instead of grating it and that way you can skip the refrigeration time.
  6. For the sauce: in the food processor (or in a blender) put the sour cream with the mayo, the chipotle chiles, the minced garlic and salt & pepper of your taste).
  7. Put it in the fridge until used to serve.
  8. In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil.
  9. Place 4-5 shrimp at the time and fry them until the bacon is thoroughly cooked (10 minutos approximately for each shrimp).
  10. Take the shrimp out and place them over a papel towel to absorb excess oil.
  11. Serve with the chipotle sauce prepared and decorate with some parsley leaves.
