Bacon-Wrapped Pineapple Bites

This recipe is a huge hit at my Christmas parties, but it’s great for every occasion. Salty-crispy bacon and sweet pineapple. Yummy!

Step: 1

Place the pineapple in a large bowl, and toss with sweet and sour sauce. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

Step: 2

To prevent burning, place toothpicks in a small bowl of water and soak 10 minutes.

Step: 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.

Step: 4

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.

Step: 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.

Step: 6

Bake in preheated oven until bacon is crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
