2
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F.

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and saute the green onions, green pepper, and garlic powder until the pepper is limp. Place in a mixing bowl and add the cream, mustard, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
4
Add the cracker crumbs, mayonnaise, egg, parsley, and lemon juice. Mix well. Gently fold in the crabmeat.

Split the shrimp down the bottom center to the tail, being careful not to cut through the back. Stuff each shrimp with a small mound of the crabmeat mixture. Wrap the shrimp in bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place the shrimp on a baking sheet and cook in the top third of the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through. Turn the oven to broil and broil for 4 minutes to crisp the bacon.
