⏱️ Prep: 90 min🍳 Cook: 8 min

Ingredients

½ teaspoon	2.5 ml	cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon	2.5 ml	cumin
½ teaspoon	2.5 ml	onion powder
½ teaspoon	2.5 ml	citrus lemon pepper
1 teaspoon	5 ml	garlic
1 tablespoon	15 ml	Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon	15 ml	fresh squeezed lemon juice
4 tablespoons	60 ml	butter, melted
9 slices		bacon
18		prawns
18		wooden skewers, soaked at least 15 minutes

Combine the melted butter and spices, add the shrimp and stir to coat. Let the shrimp marinate for 1 to 2 hours.
Slice the bacon in half and cook over medium-high heat to render out some fat, keeping the bacon flexible. Drain and pat off the grease with a paper towel.
Wrap each shrimp with a piece of bacon and slide onto skewers. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 15 minutes first, or use metal ones.
Grill on a hot grill until the shrimp are opaque, using the remaining marinade to baste when turning.
