How to Make Bacon Wrap Arounds

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon brown sugar until sugar dissolves.
  2. Add 1 pound of chestnuts to the soy sauce mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes (longer is better!).
  3. Wrap each chestnut with 1/2 slice of bacon. Secure with a toothpick.
  4. Place bacon-wrapped chestnuts on a wire rack set inside a shallow baking pan. This allows for even cooking and crisp bacon.
  5. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the chestnuts are tender.
  6. Remove from oven, carefully remove toothpicks, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
