This recipe is a huge hit at my Christmas parties, but it's great for every occasion. Salty-crispy bacon and sweet pineapple. Yummy! Ingredients:
2 (16 ounce) cans pineapple chunks, drained |
1 (10 ounce) jar sweet-and-sour sauce |
2 pounds bacon |
1 box toothpicks |
Directions:
1. Place the pineapple in a large bowl, and toss with sweet and sour sauce. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
2. To prevent burning, place toothpicks in a small bowl of water and soak 10 minutes.
3. Place a paper towel over a microwave-safe dish and arrange part of the bacon on the towel; cover with another paper towel. Cook the bacon in a microwave oven on medium just until partially cooked and still pliable, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining bacon. Cut bacon strips in half.
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.
5. Wrap half a bacon strip around each pineapple chunk. Secure bacon with a toothpick, and place on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining bacon and pineapple chunks.
6. Bake in preheated oven until bacon is crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
