My husband and I recently went to a Brazilian BBQ restaurant in Ft. Collins, Colorado. Although we felt it was a bit pricey for what you got, the experience of servers coming to your table with meat on a stick and carving it off on to your plate is something we won't forget. One of our favorite meats of the night was bacon wrapped turkey bites. We've done something similar with chicken in the past, but we decided to give it a try with a different recipe using turkey. Anything wrapped in bacon is typically good!
Bacon Wrapped Turkey Bites
20 oz skinless boneless turkey breast
½ cup real maple syrup
½ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 lb package bacon (20 slices)
Cut up the turkey breast into big bite-size pieces about 1 oz each and toss them in a mixture of the maple syrup, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and cayenne. Wrap each piece in a slice of bacon, place on skewer, and grill them for about 15 minutes until cooked all the way through and the bacon is crispy on the edges. Serve immediately. (Can also be served as an appetizer by securing them with a toothpick and broiling them for 15 minutes or until cooked through.)
