How to Cook Bacon on the Stovetop
- Total Time: 12 minutes
- Yield: 1 Serving 1x
Ingredients
- 2 slices nitrate free bacon
Instructions
Place a stainless steel frying pan on burner over medium-low to medium heat. Let pan warm for about a minute.
Cut bacon in half with scissors and place in pan. The low heat is to allow the bacon to release some of it's fat so that it doesn't stick to your pan. Once the bacon looks slightly translucent you will know it's time to turn up the heat.
Turn the heat up to medium high and cook until lightly crisp on each side. This take me about 5 to 7 minutes.

I know we all have our own methods of cooking this and cooking ..... and I would like to throw in my way of cooking bacon. I used to do it in the oven on a cookie sheet and that was years ago and then I just buckle down and went ahead and did it this way . I will post and it's just far more easier it less time-consuming and last grease.
so I take the bacon and I put it on a couple paper towels on a microwaveable plate ~~~~a dinner plate~~~ and I put each slice out next to each other and then I put two paper towels over the top of it and I do that for about 4 and 1/2 to 5 minutes take a very quick peek at it .....if it still needs cooking don't take it out just keep on cooking it maybe another minute and take a look at it.
it tastes wonderful so much better than cooking in the oven and cook it in the skillet is far too fatty maybe this will help someone and thank you for a great blog
