Steps:

- Put the baking sheets on the grill over indirect heat or in the oven (in batches if necessary) and cook until bacon starts to get crispy, carefully flipping bites once midway through cooking, 30 minutes per batch. Brush each bite with the honey mustard and let cook until bacon is crispy and glaze has caramelized, an additional 10 minutes.

- Place the pineapple in a large bowl, and toss with sweet and sour sauce. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Clean each chicken breast and cut into 4 pieces.
- Wrap each piece of chicken with 1 strip of bacon (you can use a toothpick but it is not necessary if you tuck the bacon into itself).
- Place each wrapped chicken piece into your pan (I generally spray mine with a cooking spray so it is easier to clean after).
- Sprinkle the tops of each piece with the brown sugar.
- Top each piece with a pineapple chunk or 2 and pour the juice and remaining pineapple into the pan for the chicken to cook inches.
- Place in oven and cook for 30-45 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken pieces.
- Serve with rice or pasta & enjoy!
Tips:
- For crispier bacon, use thicker slices.
- To prevent the bacon from burning, cook it over low heat.
- If you don't have toothpicks, you can use small skewers to secure the bacon around the pineapple.
- For a sweeter bite, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
- To add a little heat, sprinkle the pineapple with chili powder or cayenne pepper before wrapping it in bacon.
- If you're making a large batch of bacon-wrapped pineapple bites, cook them in batches so they don't overcrowd the pan.
- Serve bacon-wrapped pineapple bites immediately, while they're still warm and crispy.
Conclusion:
Bacon-wrapped pineapple bites are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for parties or potlucks. They're also a great way to use up leftover bacon and pineapple. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a tasty snack that everyone will love.
