1
Prepare the Bacon
Start by cutting the bacon strips into small pieces, about 1/2 inch wide. This will help the bacon cook evenly and achieve a crispy texture.

2
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet, cook the bacon pieces over medium heat. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. Continue cooking until the bacon is crispy and brown, which should take about 10-15 minutes.
3
Drain Excess Fat
Once the bacon is cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon bits from the skillet and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate. This will help absorb any excess grease.

4
Add Seasoning
If desired, sprinkle black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder over the bacon bits while they are still warm. Toss gently to ensure even coating.
