Oh, another question. can I make bacon in a skillet? How long does it take?
Oh, yes.
Start with a cold skillet. Lay out strips of bacon side by side in the pan. Put the lid on the skillet, and open the little vent on the lid (if it has one).
Turn the heat to "medium".
After 15 minutes, remove the lid and turn over the bacon. Be careful, the grease may "pop" a little.
Leave the lid off, and cook the bacon 7-10 minutes more.
If you want meaty bacon, turn off the heat and remove the bacon from the pan.
If you want crisp bacon, carefully pour the bacon grease out of the pan (into a clean coffee can, if you want to cook with it later- otherwise, into a used can to go into the trash). Cook the bacon 5-7 minutes longer, until it reaches the amount of crispness that you like.
