1
Prepare the Bacon
Take the two thick-cut bacon strips out of the packaging and place them on a clean cutting board.
2
Preheat the Pan
Place a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and allow it to preheat for about 3-5 minutes.
3
Cook the Bacon
Once the pan is hot, carefully place the bacon strips in the skillet. Cook for 4-6 minutes on one side until crispy and golden brown.
4
Flip the Bacon
Using tongs, gently flip the bacon strips over to the other side and cook for an additional 4-6 minutes until they reach your desired crispiness.
5
Season (Optional)
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of black pepper over the bacon during the last minute of cooking for added flavor.
6
Serve
Once cooked, use the tongs to transfer the bacon strips to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess grease. Serve immediately, optionally drizzled with maple syrup.
