| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a medium-sized pot with non-stick spray. |
| 2 | In a skillet over medium heat, add just enough oil to barely cover the bottom. Add the diced onions and sauté slowly until they are just soft and fragrant. |
| 3 | Transfer the sautéed onions to a medium-sized casserole dish. |
| 4 | To the casserole dish, add the drained red kidney beans, crushed pineapple (with its juice), ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly mixed. |
| 5 | Lay the bacon slices on top of the bean mixture. |
| 6 | Bake the dish, uncovered, in the preheated oven for approximately 1 1/2 hours, or until the mixture is bubbly and the bacon is crispy, stirring once or twice during baking to ensure even cooking. |
| 7 | Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the tropical flavors of this delightful dish! |
