2 (8 oz.) cans whole water chestnuts
1 lb. bacon
soy sauce
1 (16 oz.) jar sweet and sour sauce

You will need toothpicks.

Marinate chestnuts in soy sauce for 20 minutes or briefly soak if pressed for time. Preheat oven to 350°F.

Cut bacon strips in thirds or fourths. Coat bacon lightly with sweet and sour sauce just to adhere bacon to chestnut. Wrap marinated water chestnuts with piece of bacon. Place on cookie sheet and bake until bacon is nearly browned. Remove and coat bacon again with remaining sweet and sour sauce.

Bake again until bacon is done and sauce is hot.
