Spiced Bacon Skewers Food

BACON SKEWERS WITH BROWN SUGAR GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line a lipped baking pan with foil (it's important that it is lipped) and put a metal rack on top if using one.
• n a small mixing bowl combine the brown sugar, apple juice and cinnamon. Set aside. The sugar will settle to become more liquid within a few minutes.
• Take the bacon from the package and thread the bacon onto the skewers. Set the bacon skewers evenly onto the foiled lined baking sheet. Take a spoon, fork or basting brush and spread a generous amount of the glaze on each side of the bacon skewers. Make sure to get each side so that the whole bacon skewer is covered.
• Place the baking sheet into the oven and cook for 20 minutes or until your bacon is cooked to your liking. 20 minutes should get them nice and crisped up.
• Take the bacon skewers out of the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
• Serve on a platter or my favorite... in a vase as a centerpiece. Enjoy!

SPICED BACON

Steps:

• Arrange 6 slices thick-cut bacon on a rack set on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F until they just start to crisp, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Microwave 2 tablespoons sugar with 1 teaspoon water until dissolved, about 45 seconds. Flip the bacon and brush the tops with the sugar mixture.
• Sprinkle with seasonings (such as chili powder, pie spice or Cajun seasoning). Continue baking until browned, 12 to 16 more minutes. Drain on paper towels.

SPICED BACON SKEWERS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Spray a wire rack with vegetable spray and place the rack on top of the baking sheet. You will need fifteen to twenty 8-inch metal or wooden skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes). Put the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cayenne, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in a large resealable bag. Shake the bag well to mix the ingredients. Note: I didn't have a plastic bag on hand when I made this recipe, so I just mixed in a medium bowl, then dumped in a shallow pan. Thread 1 bacon slice onto each skewer like ribbon candy. Don't push the bacon together too closely or the skewers won't cook evenly. Dip each bacon skewer into the plastic bag (or shallow pan) with the sugar mixture, making sure to coat both sides well. Lay each skewer on the prepared wire rack. Sprinkle the skewers with any remaining sugar mixture. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the bacon is brown and crips, turning the skewers after 12 to 15 minutes. Serve hot.

CURLY CANDIED BACON SKEWERS

Steps:

• Place the bacon skewers on the prepared wire rack.
• Combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle half of the sugar mixture on the bacon skewers.
• Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the skewers and sprinkle on some more of the sugar mixture. Cook for 20 minutes more.
• Remove the bacon skewers from the oven and flip them over. Taste one skewer. If desired, sprinkle a small amount of the remaining spice mixture on the bacon skewers.
• Serve the skewers just as they are or add on garnishes, such as olives and cherry tomatoes, before popping them in your cocktail!
