Instructions

  1. Drain the water chestnuts and put them in a bowl. Cover with the soy sauce and let them marinade for 30 minutes - 2 hours.
  2. At the same time, add 10 toothpicks to a bowl of water to soak.
  3. Cut each slice of bacon in half. Drain the toothpicks and the water chestnuts.
  4. Place a whole water chestnut on each slice of bacon. Wrap the bacon around it and secure it with a toothpick.
  5. Combine the brown sugar, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl. Brush the sauce onto the bacon-wrapped water chestnuts.
  6. Put them in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 390 degrees F for 10 minutes.
  7. Check and decide if the bacon is crispy enough. If not, cook for a few more minutes.

Notes

  • Oven Baking
  • Bake in a 375-degree F oven for 15 minutes. For ease of cleanup, place the bacon-wrapped water chestnuts on a rack above an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet.

  • Use thin-cut bacon, not thick cut.
  • Don't use the sauce you use for coating them for dipping. It was exposed to raw bacon.
  • Soak the toothpicks so they don't burn in the air fryer.
