Candied Chipotle Bacon Recipes

CANDIED CHIPOTLE BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Arrange slices on baking sheet; bake until almost crisp (8-9 minutes). Drain the drippings from baking sheet and discard.
• In small bowl, combine agave nectar, chipotle seasoning and pepper. Brush bacon with the chipotle mixture; bake until glazed (8-10 minutes).
• Cool.

SPIKED CANDIED BACON

Steps:

• Combine the bacon and tequila in a large bowl and refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment. Drain and pat the bacon dry. Mix the brown sugar, chili powder and chipotle together and spread out on a large plate. Press both sides of each bacon strip in the sugar mixture and then arrange on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with any remaining sugar mixture.
• Bake for until the bacon is golden and glazed, turning once, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a wire tack to cool.

CANDIED BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put bacon slices in a bowl, season them with pepper and toss with the brown sugar. Cover a baking sheet with parchment or foil and arrange the bacon in a single layer on top. Sprinkle any sugar left in the bowl over the bacon. Top with another layer of parchment or foil and top it, squarely, with another baking sheet. The baking sheet will flatten the bacon as it cooks.
• Place the tray in the center of the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Check the bacon by lifting the top tray and parchment. If it is not golden brown and fairly crispy, resist the temptation to turn up the oven temperature, and cook it for 10 to 15 minutes longer. Check it again. Keep in mind that when you remove the tray and transfer the bacon to a serving platter or individual plates, the bacon will "crisp" up a little more. Be patient!
