CRISPY FRIED BACON


SERVES 2 TO 4


8 slices bacon, cut crosswise in half




  1.  Place   the bacon   in  an  even    layer   in  a   12-inch cast-iron   or

    heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet and cook over medium
    heat until sizzling, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to
    medium-low and continue to cook until the fat is
    rendered and the bacon is crisp on both sides, flipping
    and rearranging the slices as necessary, about 12 minutes
    total.



  2. Drain the bacon on a paper-towel-lined plate and serve.
