Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    Remove the bacon from the packaging and lay it flat. If desired, cut the strips in half for smaller pieces.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, place the bacon strips in a single layer over medium heat. Cook until the bacon is crispy, turning occasionally, about 8-10 minutes.

  2. 3

    Drain the Bacon

    Once the bacon is cooked to your desired crispiness, use tongs to transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

  3. 4

    Season (Optional)

    While the bacon is still hot, sprinkle with black pepper, drizzle with maple syrup, or add red pepper flakes if desired.
