- 1
Prepare the skillet
Place a large skillet on the stove and keep it cold; you will not preheat before adding the bacon.
- 2
Lay out the bacon
Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer in the skillet, making sure they do not overlap.
- 3
Render and crisp
Turn the heat to medium and cook, allowing the fat to render and the bacon to brown around the edges. Cook until desired crispness, about 5–7 minutes, flipping once if needed.
- 4
Drain excess fat
Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to blot away excess fat.
- 5
Season and serve
While hot, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon black pepper over the bacon if desired, and serve immediately.
