Ingredients
- 20 pieces Pineapple chunks
- 10 slices Bacon strips
- 10 slices Water chestnuts
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Garlic, minced
- 20 pieces Toothpicks
- 1 can Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium heat and lightly coat the grates with cooking spray.
Step 2
Cut each bacon strip in half crosswise to create 20 shorter slices.
Step 3
Place one water chestnut slice and one pineapple chunk together. Wrap them with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Step 4
Repeat the process for the remaining ingredients until you have 20 prepared rumaki.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, grated ginger, and minced garlic until the sugar dissolves.
Step 6
Brush each bacon-wrapped pineapple with the soy-ginger glaze, making sure they are evenly coated.
Step 7
Place the rumaki on the preheated grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes, rotating every 2-3 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Step 8
When the bacon becomes crispy and slightly caramelized, remove the rumaki from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Step 9
Let the rumaki rest for 2 minutes to cool slightly before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm as a delicious appetizer or party snack.
