For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the shrimp in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice for 30 minutes before wrapping them in bacon.
Use thick-cut bacon for a more substantial bite and to prevent the bacon from burning before the shrimp is cooked through.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can cook these in a skillet over medium heat or bake them in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes.
