1
Prepare the Pan
Place a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Allow it to heat up for a few minutes.
2
Arrange the Bacon
Once the pan is hot, carefully lay the bacon strips in a single layer in the pan. Avoid overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.
3
Cook the Bacon
Cook the bacon for about 5-7 minutes on one side until it starts to brown and crisp up. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
4
Flip the Bacon
Using tongs, carefully flip each bacon strip to the other side. Continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the bacon is crispy and reaches your desired level of doneness.
5
Drain the Bacon
Once cooked, transfer the bacon strips to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess grease.
6
Serve
Serve the crispy bacon warm as a side dish or as part of your favorite breakfast.
