kcalChocolate and bacon, two of life’s most sinful pleasures, come together in this decadent, savory, and sweet recipe. Skewering the bacon allows the chocolate to adhere well to the meat, though it is not necessary. If you work without the skewers, simply cook the bacon flat in a pan, transfer to parchment paper, and brush on the chocolate.
Ingredients
8 bacon slices
1 1/2 tbsp coconut oil
3 tbsp unsweetened chocolate chips or pieces
1 tsp stevia, or other sugar substitute
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Skewer each bacon slice accordion-style.
- Place on a baking sheet. Put the sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes, until crisp.
- Remove the bacon from the oven and cool completely.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil and chocolate. Whisk in the stevia.
- Transfer the bacon to a sheet of parchment paper. With a pastry brush, coat one side of each bacon slice with some of the chocolate. Flip. Coat the other side of each piece with the remaining chocolate.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
