Tired of splattering grease and unevenly cooked bacon? Ditch the stovetop and embrace the magic of oven-baked bacon! This method is a game-changer for achieving perfectly crispy bacon every single time, with minimal mess and maximum flavor.
Here's the simple secret: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lay bacon strips in a single layer on a baking sheet (line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup!). Bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on your desired crispiness. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
Why oven bacon is superior: Even cooking, less mess, and hands-off convenience. Plus, the rendered bacon fat is perfect for future culinary adventures – think roasted vegetables or savory sauces. Enjoy the best bacon of your life!
