Steps:
- Position a rack 3 to 4 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler. Whisk the lemon juice, garlic, paprika, thyme, olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow baking dish. Add the shrimp and toss to coat; marinate in the refrigerator, 20 minutes.
- Turn the shrimp in the marinade to coat well. One at a time, remove each shrimp and wrap with a piece of bacon; secure with a toothpick if desired. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Spoon any remaining marinade over the shrimp. Broil, turning the shrimp once, until the bacon is slightly crisp and the shrimp are cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Large shrimp tend to get rubbery when cooked. Grilling them is an excellent alternative. The bacon keeps them from drying out.

Steps:
- Wrap shrimp with 1/2 slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick. Be sure and use the large shrimp--the cooking time for the shrimp and the bacon is similar. If you use medium-sized shrimp, you might want to precook the bacon a little--over cooked shrimp are tough and rubbery--and a real shame.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Line a jelly roll pan with extra heavy duty foil, and place baking rack in the pan. Place the shrimp on the rack, and sprinkle heavily with the barbecue seasoning. Turn and sprinkle second side. Set aside for 15 minutes. The bacon will turn from creamy white to a little opaque, and the seasonings will soak in.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crisp and shrimp are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. The rack keeps the shrimp from sitting in the draining bacon fat. With a little luck, you won't tear the foil--you can throw that away and only have to scrub the rack.

AVOCADO, BACON AND SHRIMP WRAPS
I found this recipe last year in the Chicago Tribune and have made it several times since then. It's best to use a good, smoky bacon and I prefer the lavash bread to the flour tortillas, but that's just a personal taste. Also, I usually buy the cooked shrimp when it's on sale at my store, which makes this even easier. I make one of these up in the evening, wrap in plastic wrap and throw it in my lunch bag in the morning to take to work.

Steps:
- Spread the flatbreads or tortillas with mayonnaise. Lay a lettuce leaf on each; top each with avocado and tomato slices. Divide the shrimp and bacon evenly among the sandwiches; top each with the remaining lettuce. Roll the flatbread to make a tight cylinder.
- If made ahead, wrap well in plastic wrap and refrigerate. I've only kept them as long as the next day, for lunch so don't know how well they'd keep any longer than that.

BORA BORA BACON-WRAPPED SHRIMP WITH PASSION FRUIT MUSTARD
Star chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten follows a morning of Jet-skiing on a turquoise lagoon with an exuberant afternoon of creating recipes for his new Bora Bora restaurant. He planned to punch up his shrimp with a simple mustard sauce, but the spectacular passion fruits on Bora Bora gave his sauce a tangy kick. Store-bought passion fruit juice also works well if you can't make it to the island to pick the fruits.

Tips:
- Choose the right shrimp. Large shrimp (21-25 count per pound) are best for this recipe. They're large enough to hold the bacon and avocado without being overwhelmed, and they cook quickly.
- Use good-quality bacon. Thick-cut bacon is best for this recipe. It will provide a nice crispy texture, and it will hold the shrimp in place.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Otherwise, they will become tough and rubbery.
- Make the passion fruit mustard sauce ahead of time. This sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Bacon-wrapped shrimp are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
Bacon-wrapped shrimp with passion fruit mustard and avocado is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The shrimp are wrapped in bacon and grilled until cooked through. They are then served with a passion fruit mustard sauce and avocado slices. This dish is perfect for a party or a special occasion.
