Sriracha-Honey Glazed Bacon-Wrapped Pineapple
Description
The Sriracha-Honey Glazed Bacon-Wrapped Pineapple showcases fresh pineapple pieces wrapped tightly in bacon that crisps up in the oven. Before baking, they are coated with a glaze made from brown sugar, honey, lime juice, and sriracha, delivering a balanced blend of sweetness, heat, and acidity. The soy sauce adds umami depth, and finely chopped cilantro stems are sprinkled on the glaze for an additional herbal touch.
Baking at 400°F slowly renders the bacon fat and caramelizes the sugars in the glaze, resulting in a crispy texture that pairs with the juicy pineapple center. The bacon is cut in half to make perfectly sized pieces for serving.
After baking, toothpicks make these easy to serve as appetizers or snacks. Garnishing with fresh cilantro leaves adds freshness and color, contrasting with the rich glazed bacon and vibrant pineapple flavors, ideal for parties or as a flavorful snack.
