Directions

Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack on top.

2. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, light brown sugar and tomato-based chili sauce until smooth. Set aside half for brushing and keep the rest for serving.

3. Wrap each bacon half around a water chestnut half and secure it with a toothpick.

4. Arrange the wrapped chestnuts seam side down on the rack. Bake for 20 minutes.

5. Brush the tops with some of the sauce mixture. Bake 20 to 25 minutes more, brushing once more, until the bacon is crisp and reaches 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part.

6. Let the rolls rest for 3 minutes, then remove the toothpicks and serve warm with the remaining sauce for dipping.
