Have you ever wondered how to bake bacon in the oven? Good news! All you need is bacon, a metal baking rack, and a cookie sheet to make the most perfect oven baked bacon every time.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. bacon (nitrate-free if possible (any thickness))

Directions

  1. 1

    First, preheat the oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with tin foil.

  2. 2

    Next, place a metal baking rack on top of the baking sheet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Remove bacon from package and place bacon strips side by side on the baking rack. Make sure that the strips are not overlapping. It's okay if they touch because they will shrink while baking.

  4. 4

    Thin-cut bacon: bake for 10-15 minutes.
