Description

Chinese New Year is just around the corner, so I thought you’d enjoy this recipe is for Asian-inspired candied bacon. It’s really fattening but it SO good! Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Thick, Center-cut Bacon
  • _____
  • FOR THE GLAZE:
  • 1 Tablespoon Regular Soy Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Dark Soy Sauce (may Substitute Regular Soy Sauce)
  • 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • ¼ teaspoons Liquid Smoke
  • ½ cups Plus 2 Tablespoons Firmly Packed Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar
  • ½ teaspoons Red Food Coloring
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Ginger
  • ¼ teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Black Pepper
  • ½ teaspoons Onion Powder
  • ⅛ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper (Optional)
  • ½ teaspoons Sesame Oil

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a sided sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place an oven-safe rack on the sheet pan. Place the bacon in a single layer on the wire rack. You may need to slightly overlap the bacon to get it all to fit on the pan.

While the oven is heating, add all of the glaze ingredients to a medium sauce pan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Once simmering, continue to simmer the glaze for 3 minutes, swirling the pan every minute or so to keep things mixed up. Reduce the heat to low to keep the mixture warm.

As soon as the oven has preheated, place the bacon (unglazed) in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Flip the strips of bacon and bake for 10 minutes longer.

Pull out the bacon, flip all of the strips, and brush on some of the glaze. Bake for 5 minutes.

Pull out the bacon again, flip over all of the strips, and brush on some of the glaze. Bake for another 5 minutes.

One final time, pull out the bacon, flip the pieces, and brush on a final layer of the glaze. Bake for 4 to 8 minutes or until the bacon reaches your desired color and crispiness. Discard any leftover glaze.

Transfer the cooked bacon to a clean rack. Drool until the bacon has cooled to room temperature. Devour.
