Soyracha Maple Bacon Recipes

BROWN SUGAR-SRIRACHA BACON BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Stir together the sriracha and brown sugar in a medium bowl; add the bacon pieces and toss to coat. Set aside.
• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; place a wire rack over the foil. Spray the rack liberally with cooking spray. Place the bacon pieces in a single layer on the rack.
• Bake until the bacon is almost crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle the bacon with the toasted and black sesame seeds and bake an additional 5 minutes. Cool for 5 to 8 minutes, moving the bacon pieces slightly on the rack every 2 minutes to prevent sticking. (The bacon will crisp more as it cools.)

MAPLE SRIRACHA SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add maple syrup, sriracha, and soy sauce; whisk together until blended. Simmer until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.

BACON-WRAPPED GRILLED SWEET POTATO FRIES

Steps:

• Cut sweet potatoes in half, length-wise
• With the flat side down, cut potatoes into approximately 1/2-inch fries
• Add fries to a large bowl. Add olive oil, chili powder, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, paprika, and pepper to the bowl and mix. Cover as much of the fries as possible.
• Wrap each fry with 1/2 slice of bacon or a full one if it is an exceptionally large fry.
• Preheat Grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and make sure there is a zone for indirect heat.
• While grill is preheating, mix all sauce ingredients together and stir until well combined.
• Once grill is preheated, add the bacon-wrapped sweet potatoes to the indirect heat.
• Grill for 30-35 minutes, flipping 1/2 way through heating.
• Once the bacon is done and fries are tender to the fork and have a crispy outside.
• Remove, Serve with dip, and Enjoy!

SRIRACHA MAPLE BACON

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 400° F and line a couple of rimmed baking sheets with parchment or foil. Lay your bacon out on the baking sheets making sure the pieces don't overlap. Mix together the maple syrup and sriracha in a small bowl and brush the bacon slices on both sides with it. You should still have a bunch of the sauce left -- you'll use this to brush occasionally as the bacon is cooking. Stick the pans of bacon in the oven and bake until browned and crispy, about 18 to 25 minutes (depending on the thickness of your bacon), taking the pans out and brushing the tops of the bacon with more Sriracha-maple sauce a couple of times during the baking process (once about halfway through and once towards the very end when they're looking almost done). Transfer the cooked bacon to a plate or platter and serve.
