Heat the grill to its highest setting. Line a baking sheet with foil and add the bacon. Grill for mins on each side, depending on how crispy you like it. To achieve super-crispy bacon, opt for the streaky type. It can be used in salads, crumbled over macaroni cheese or sprinkled on soups. Try our best ever crispy baocn recipe. Give a classic breakfast sandwich a twist with our egg-in-the-hole bacon sandwich. Slice to enjoy the runny yolk, and use smoked streaky bacon for a savoury, crispy base.

The butter beans make this soup creamy and silky smooth, and also help to thicken the base. The toasted hazelnuts, crispy kale and salty bacon add an extra punch of flavour and texture. As an alternative to a frypan, use a griddle. The rectangular shape and bigger size accommodates more strips. Whether you use a skillet or griddle, have a plate ready for the cooked bacon and place in a warm oven or warming draw to hold.
Finish cooking the remainder of the bacon and your eggs or pancakes or waffles. Cleanup requires some elbow grease. I use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, which makes the job a little easier. Cook up a batch or two of bacon and hold in a warm degrees F oven while you finish cooking. Then cook the bacon over medium-high heat until browned on bottom, 3 to 4 minutes.
Flip with tongs and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes. Cooking bacon in the microwave oven is faster than in a skillet, and the bacon strips are attractively straight and long. The secret to the meat and fat cooking evenly is for them to start out around the same temperature. Let your bacon sit at room temperature for fifteen minutes or so before you cook it.
It will help the fat render more quickly, so it will be crispy and not burnt. Fry the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Season with salt and pepper. If yours is running hotter, you risk burning the bacon. If you like your bacon extra crispy, put a metal cooling rack inside the baking sheet. Elevating the bacon allows the strips to cook from all sides.
If you like your bacon with a little chew, or you don't have a cooling rack, skip this step. Your bacon will still be amazing. Do not let them overlap or the strips will stick together. Bake until the bacon is crispy, about 20 minutes, depending on its thickness. No need to flip!
Our advice: Start checking after 15 minutes because some ovens are finicky and burnt bacon is sad. Per usual, drain the very greasy bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate, then serve immediately. Pour grease into a mason jar or other glass container and store in the fridge. Seriously though — saving the fat will be the best decision you make all week. You can use it to cook eggs , roast vegetables , and pop popcorn!
