Preparation

Step 1

Cook the Bacon.

Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place the bacon strips in a single layer and bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on the desired level of crispiness and thickness of the bacon slices. 

Pan: Start with cold bacon slices straight from the refrigerator. Place the skillet on the stove over medium heat. Let it heat up for a minute or two until it’s hot but not smoking. Carefully place the bacon slices in the hot skillet, ensuring they are not overlapping. Let the bacon cook undisturbed for a few minutes until the edges start to curl and brown. Use tongs to flip the bacon slices occasionally to ensure even cooking.
