Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Canned pineapple chunks (drained)
- 20 slices Water chestnuts (sliced and drained)
- 10 strips Bacon strips (cut in half)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 20 pieces Toothpicks
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray.
In a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, and ground ginger. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Take one piece of pineapple and one slice of water chestnut, stack them together, and wrap them with half a strip of bacon. Secure the bundle with a toothpick.
Repeat the wrapping process for all remaining pineapple, water chestnuts, and bacon pieces.
Carefully dip each bacon-wrapped bundle into the soy sauce mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated. Place the bundles on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow for proper cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and golden. Rotate the bundles halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
Remove the rumaki from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Arrange them on a platter and enjoy!
