Adobo-spiced bacon-wrapped shrimp

It doesn't get much easier or tastier than this! Cook up 1/2 pound bacon strips in a skillet until slightly cooked but still pliable. In a small bowl, coat 1/2 pound raw, peeled and deveined shrimp in 1-2 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle on 1 tablespoon Adobo spice blend, and toss the shrimp to coat. Wrap the bacon slices around the shrimp, and secure each with a toothpick. Place the shrimp on a preheated grill pan, and cook for a few minutes on each side, until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp is cooked through. Do not overcook! Remove the toothpicks for serving, if desired.
