3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 tsp chipotle powder
Preheat your oven to 200c/400f, and place your bacon on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Place it in the oven and allow it to bake until it is about 75% cooked, will take about 20 mins. You’ll see the edges start to curl. Remove from oven and sprinkle each strip with brown sugar, chipotle and pecans. Easier still, you can combine all ingredients to do this in one step instead of three. Return to oven and bake for another 10 or so minutes. Time suggestions are never going to be as precise as just watching the bacon – you want to try to get it pretty dark and crispy, but definitely not burnt. Remove from oven and allow to cool. It’ll firm up while it cools, so don’t worry if it still seems pliable when you take it out. Let is cool enough to not burn your mouth off, and then go ahead and dive in! It’s best eaten warm, but its good at room temp too.
