Q: I was wondering how to cook frozen bacon in oven. My sister used to make it as a breakfast but said it was too difficult and messy. Any ideas? Thanks.
A: There are several methods to cooking frozen bacon, but we will focus on how to cook frozen bacon in the oven. This can be done both inside and out depending on your preference. It's really up to you which way works best for you.
The fastest way to cook frozen bacon in the oven is the traditional method of frying it in butter. This method requires oil that is cold. You cannot use cold vegetable oil because it will not give the same results as the cold oil. This method does work if you do not have a deep fryer or wok. Just remember to stir constantly and add the oil one at a time so that it doesn't stick to the pan. Once the first side starts to turn golden brown, take it off and place it on a cooling rack to continue cooking.
If you don't want to use a deep fryer or a wok, you may want to consider cooking frozen bacon in a microwave. You can also cook it this way, but it takes a little more patience. However, you don't have to use any special equipment to do this; the microwave is an effective cooking method just because it saves time.
You start by setting the microwave oven to the desired temperature and then preheat it for about 2 minutes. You can also heat it up for about a minute before defrosting bacon on the top rack of your kitchen oven. The first thing you want to do when cooking is to remove the plastic wrap from the package. Next, you will want to open up the package to remove the instructions on how to cook frozen bacon. When you read the instructions you will see that you can cook it in the microwave or on the top rack of the microwave oven.
When you start to cook the bacon, you want to be sure that you use medium heat. The medium heat allows you to seal in the ingredients so that they don't burn when they are heated up. To cook frozen pork chops in a skillet, you just need to place the pork chops in the skillet. Then, you will want to cover the skillet with the paper packet that came with the frozen meat. Cook the pork chops in the skillet until they are almost done. When they are half done, take them out of the skillet and place them on a plate.
To thaw bacon, you will need to bring the heat down to medium low. Once the bacon is half done, it will be time to turn the power setting to low. Keep an eye on the bacon to make sure that it does not touch the bottom or sides of the pan. Then, you can safely remove the bacon from the power setting. After the slice is cooled, you can slice into quarters and serve.
For best results, when you cook frozen bacon on the top rack of your microwave oven, you will want to set the timer to 10 minutes. If you find that you are in a hurry, you can shorten the timer by one minute. Once you have defrosted the bacon, you can serve the pieces on the plate as they are or you can put them on a platter. For the best results, when you serve the pieces on the plate, you should let them rest for about five minutes.
