Bacon-Wrapped Pineapple Bites - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 (16 ounce) cans pineapple chunks, drained
    1 (10 ounce) jar sweet-and-sour sauce
    2 pounds bacon
    1 box toothpicks
Preparation
    Place the pineapple in a large bowl, and toss with sweet and sour sauce. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
    To prevent burning, place toothpicks in a small bowl of water and soak 10 minutes.
    Place a paper towel over a microwave-safe dish and arrange part of the bacon on the towel; cover with another paper towel. Cook the bacon in a microwave oven on medium just until partially cooked and still pliable, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining bacon. Cut bacon strips in half.
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.
    Wrap half a bacon strip around each pineapple chunk. Secure bacon with a toothpick, and place on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining bacon and pineapple chunks.
    Bake in preheated oven until bacon is crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
