Candied Bacon

Langkah-langkah

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and set a rack in the middle position. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean-up, and set an oven-proof rack over top.
2. Arrange the bacon in a single layer on the rack. Bake for 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, syrup, and chipotle powder. Set aside.
4. Remove the pan from the oven and flip the bacon slices. Using a small spoon, spread the sugar-syrup mixture evenly over the bacon. Place the pan back in the oven and continue cooking for 20 to 35 minutes more. (The cooking time will depend on the brand of bacon you use and how crispy you like it. I recommend cooking it as long as possible without burning it, so that the sugar mixture dries out; otherwise, the bacon can be a little sticky.) Using tongs, transfer the bacon to a piece of parchment paper or a platter in a single layer to prevent sticking. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes, then serve (the bacon will crisp up as it cools).
