Rachael Ray is one of the most influential celebrity cooks we’ve all come across. And you can’t deny that her recipes are just as exciting as they’re innovative. It’s even a shocker to discover the impressive techniques by which she cooks bacon. So, if you’ve ever wondered whether you can do what she does, well, it ends today.

Many prefer to cook bacon in the oven compared to a skillet. And one main reason is bacon grease tends to splatter when you cook it on the stovetop. Plus, there are some fantastic ideas from Rachael Ray that are best prepared in the oven. And we’ll be checking out some of them below.

Bacon Nutrition Facts

What Kind of Bacon Should You Use?

You may wonder if you need to find a specific type of bacon for this recipe, but the reverse is the case. To put it simply, your choice of bacon will depend on the style you prefer. And we know there are various types of delicious bacon strips out there. You’ll find options ranging from uncured to thick-cut, low-sodium, organic, unsliced, and even turkey bacon. They may also come as smoked, peppered, Canadian, or country-styled.

The main thing to note, however, is how quickly your preferred type of bacon cooks. As some options are thicker than others, you’ll want to consider the time factor. You’ll also have to consider the flavor enhancement, like spices, seasoning, and smokiness.

Cooking Bacon Rachael Ray Style

Rachael Ray’s oven-cooked bacon recipes come in different methods, but these options below are among the most convenient;

Twisting the Strips

Thick-cuts are the best types of bacon for this technique. What you do is take the uncooked strips and twist them to make tight spirals. Then, place the twisted bacon strips on a rack, and set the frame in a baking sheet lined with foil. Bake the strips at 400F to crisp. This procedure should take around 35 minutes. Afterward, set it down and leave it to cook on the rack before serving.

Bake it Sweet

You can also make your bacon taste sweeter than savory. The first thing is to arrange the strips on a rack and set the frame in a baking sheet lined with foil. Then, place the sheet in the oven and cook the bacon to brown at 375F for about 25 minutes. At this point, you can then sprinkle a glaze made from brown sugar and fennel seeds, ground sage, or cayenne. Once you’ve glazed, let the strips bake for another five minutes, set down to cool, and serve.

Bake with an Egg

This method is perhaps one of the most famous Rachael Ray bacon recipe ideas. First, the strips are cooked in a skillet over medium heat at three minutes per side. Then, they’re left to cool and then cut crosswise into two equal pieces. After that, you take a muffin pan and line the inside of each cup with one slice of bacon. The halved pieces are then used to cover the cups’ bottom and are pressed at their overlapped edges. Crack eggs into bacon-lined cups and bake at 375F for 10 to 18 minutes. And when the eggs are firm, season and serve.
