Cooking Directions
-
Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler.

Wrap each cherry with a bacon half, secure with a toothpick, and arrange on a baking sheet. Drizzle reserved cherry juice over wrapped cherries.

Broil in the preheated oven until bacon is crisped to your liking, 3 to 10 minutes.
Tips
Cooking time may be increased if you want the bacon crisp, but I think that the bacon is better soft.
Although I have never tried it, I imagine that this recipe would also be good on a grill with a grate small enough that the cherries don’t fall through.
