Steps:

• Boil water, add shrimp and cook until just pink, no more than 3 to 5 minutes. Drain well and rinse in cold water to prevent further cooking. Peel and devein shrimp, leaving tails on. In large glass airtight jar (about 1 1/2 quarts *) layer shrimp and onions and top each layer with ground black pepper, peppercorns, bay leaf and a clove of garlic. Keep layering until jar is about 2/3 full. Pour vinegar over layers until jar is almost full. Leave space at the top so you can gently shake jar to remix ingredients. Seal jar tightly and chill for a few days up to two weeks. Turn jar upside down to remix every other day or so. Serve chilled as an appetizer.
• * Note: for larger shrimp you may need a larger jar and adjust ingredients accordingly.

Steps:

• FOR THE SHRIMP:.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the green onions, green pepper, and garlic powder until the pepper is limp. Place in a mixing bowl and add the cream, mustard, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
• Add the cracker crumbs, mayonnaise, egg, parsley, and lemon juice. Mix well. Gently fold in the crabmeat.
• Split the shrimp down the bottom center to the tail, being careful not to cut through the back. Stuff each shrimp with a small mound of the crabmeat mixture. Wrap the shrimp in bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place the shrimp on a baking sheet and cook in the top third of the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through. Turn the oven to broil and broil for 4 minutes to crisp the bacon.
• WHILE THE SHRIMP COOKS: BASIL CREAM SAUCE.
• Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook until light brown, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and reduce the sauce by half. Add the cream and bouillon and reduce by half again. Add the pesto, bring to a simmer, and heat until slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
• To serve, arrange 4 shrimp on a plate and drizzle with Basil Sauce.
