Perfect Baked Bacon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 lb bacon

Preparation

Line rimmed baking sheet with foil. Coat lightly with oil spray.
Lay out bacon in a single layer. Put in a cold oven.
Turn on to 400\u00b0F; Set timer for 17 minutes.
When the 17 minutes is up, check every 1-2 minutes until done. It will look slightly undercooked in the oven. Take it out now & it will be perfect - crispy but not hard.
variations:
1. sprinkle with brown sugar before baking.
2. sprinkle with black pepper before baking.
3. lightly coat with jerk seasoning before baking.
