Ingredients
1
16 oz pkg
bacon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place the racks in the upper third and bottom third positions.
Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
Lay the slices of bacon flat on the parchment paper, making sure the bacon slices are not touching.
Bake the bacon for 10 minutes. Rotate the pans.
Bake the bacon for an additional 10 minutes or until it is crisp.
If your bacon is thick, it might be necessary to use metal tongs to flip the bacon over on the sheet pans about halfway through cooking time.
Watch the bacon closely at the end so as not to burn the bacon.
Drain the bacon on a paper towel lined plate before serving.
