Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    Remove the bacon from its packaging and lay it flat on a cutting board.

  2. 2

    Optional Seasoning Preparation

    If using, mix the black pepper, maple syrup, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Pan Frying Method

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the bacon strips in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan.

  2. 4

    Cooking Process

    Cook the bacon for about 4-5 minutes on one side until it begins to brown and crisp. Flip the bacon using tongs and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side.

  3. 5

    Optional Glaze

    If using the optional seasoning, brush the mixture over the bacon during the last minute of cooking. Allow the glaze to caramelize slightly.

  4. 6

    Remove and Drain

    Once the bacon is cooked to your desired crispiness, use tongs to remove it from the skillet and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
