• If using oven/broiler: Line a baking sheet with foil, and top with a wire rack.

Marinade the Shrimp

• Whisk together all marinade ingredients (olive oil, lime juice, tequila, garlic, cilantro, and spices).
• Toss shrimp with marinade to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 20 minutes while you prep the rest of the dish.
  

Prep the Spiked Guacamole

• Melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and saute until softened, 1-2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an addition 30-45 seconds, or until fragrant. Remove from heat.
• In a bowl or other dish, mash avocados with lime juice, tequila, spices, and cilantro. Fold in the tomato and sautéed onion/garlic. Set aside.

Prep the Bacon + Wrap Shrimp

• Cut bacon slices in halve crosswise, to make 16 half-length pieces.
• To make sure the bacon gets fully crispy, I recommend partially precooking it in one of the following ways:
• Microwave: Line a large, microwave safe plate with paper towels. Arrange bacon on the lined plate and microwave for 1.5-2 minutes
• Air Fryer: Air fry bacon at 400F for 3-4 minutes.
• Oven: Arrange bacon on prepared baking sheet with wire rack and bake in a preheated 400F oven for 5-7 minutes.
• Whichever method you use, you're mainly looking to render some of the fat. The bacon pieces might shrink slightly, but should still be pliable.
  
• Once bacon is cool enough to handle, wrap each shrimp with a piece of bacon. Brush wrapped shrimp with marinade.

Air Fryer Method

• Arrange shrimp in air fryer, and cook at 400F for 5-6 minutes.
• Flip shrimp and brush again with marinade. Reserve remaining marinade for the sauce.
• Air fry for an additional 5-7 minutes or until bacon is crisp and shrimp are translucent and cooked through.

Broiler Method

• Arrange shrimp on prepared baking sheet with wire rack. Place pan on top rack and broil for 5-6 minutes.
• Flip shrimp and brush again with marinade. Reserve remaining marinade for the sauce.
• Broil for an additional 5-6 minutes or until bacon is crisp and shrimp are cooked through.

Cream Sauce

• Using the same pan you cooked the onion in, melt butter over medium heat. Add remaining marinade (about 2-3 tablespoons) to the pan, and cook for about 1 minute or until slightly reduced.
• Reduce heat to low. Stir in cream, and simmer until slightly thickened.

Serve and Enjoy

• Add guacamole to a serving platter, or divide between individual dishes. Top with bacon wrapped shrimp, and drizzle with cream sauce. Serve immediately.
