You may substitute regular bacon for the pancetta, but in that case, partially cook the bacon in a heavy skillet over MEDIUM heat on the side burner until some of the fat is rendered, about one minute per side.
Ingredients:
-
2 teaspoons paprika
-
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
-
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
-
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
2 tablespoons sugar
-
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
-
20 jumbo shrimp, shelled and deveined
-
10 thin slices lean pancetta, sliced in half
Steps:
- Combine the first 10 ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl. Add the shrimp and marinate for 30 minutes. Wrap the shrimp with the pancetta, securing it with a toothpick.
- Preheat the barbecue, and brush the cooking grids with oil. Grill on HIGH heat, 3-4 minutes per side, until the shrimp becomes opaque and curls.
