Bacon Water Chestnut Rolls

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of bacon
  • 1 can (8 ounces) of whole water chestnuts, drained
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • ½ cup of soy sauce
  • Toothpicks for securing

Instructions:

  1. First things first, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While that’s heating up, go ahead and grab your bacon and cut each strip in half. You want just the right amount to wrap around those water chestnuts.
  2. Next, take a piece of bacon and wrap it around a water chestnut—make sure it fits snugly. Secure it with a toothpick to keep it all together. Repeat this step until all your water chestnuts are wrapped.
  3. Now, in a bowl, mix together that delicious brown sugar and soy sauce to make a sweet and savory marinade. Once mixed, dip each bacon-wrapped water chestnut in the sauce until they are well coated.
  4. Place those wrapped goodies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prepare for some serious flavor magic as they bake!
  5. Pop them in the oven and let them bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the bacon is all crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on them, y’all. The aroma is gonna be enticing!
  6. Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes. Now comes the best part: serving! You can dish these up on a platter and watch ’em disappear!

So there you have it, folks—a tasty, crowd-pleasing appetizer that’s quick to make and even quicker to devour. Enjoy your Bacon Water Chestnut Rolls and let the good times roll!
