Steps:
- For the shrimp: Heat a grill to medium-high heat. Combine the paprika, garlic, onion powder, sugar, salt, coriander, black pepper and cayenne in a bowl.

- Lay the bacon across grates of a grill and grill until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Set aside on paper-towel-lined plate.

Steps:
- For the shrimp: Add the lemon juice, olive oil, Cajun spice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Add the shrimp and toss to coat them in the spice mixture. Allow the shrimp to marinate while you make the remoulade. Do not marinate shrimp longer than 20 minutes.
- For the remoulade: Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, Cajun spice, ketchup, mustard, parsley, lemon zest and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a bowl and whisk to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the shrimp in an even layer. Allow the shrimp to cook for 2 minutes, then flip them and cook until they are just opaque and the tails are pink, about another minute. Remove the shrimp to a serving platter, garnish with parsley and lemon wedges and serve with remoulade.
CAJUN-SPICED SMOKED SHRIMP WITH RéMOULADE
This recipe was in the August 2011 issue of Cooking Light. I made it for my family and boyfriend, and everyone loved it. I didn't have a smoker, so I just skipped using the wood chips and grilled the shrimp, which worked fine.
