Instructions

  1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set an oven rack on top. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and ketchup. Set aside.
  2. Wrap each whole water chestnut in a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Dredge each in sauce mixture (or brush sauce on with a pastry brush).
  3. Arrange in a single layer on rack set over baking sheet. Broil on HIGH 4 to 6 inches from broiler for 5 to 7 minutes per side (flipping halfway), about 10 to 15 minutes total. Remove from oven and serve warm.

Notes

  • Brown sugar and ketchup: Or up the ante with your favorite store-bought or homemade barbecue sauce.
  • Bacon: Slice each piece into thirds to wrap nicely around each water chestnut.
  • Yield: This easy appetizer recipe makes 24 Bacon Wrapped Water Chestnuts. I usually estimate about three bites per person, so this creates enough snacks for about eight adults.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Make ahead: The water chestnuts can be wrapped in bacon and skewered a day in advance.
