Ingredients

1 (16-ounce) package bacon
rimmed baking sheet
aluminum foil
cooling rack*

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, and place the wire cooling rack* on top of it.
Place 1 (16-ounce) package bacon evenly in a row, careful not to overlap.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until desired crispiness. Remove and set the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate.

Notes

*I have made it before without the cooling rack and is optional.
