How To Cook Bacon From Frozen

Learn how to cook bacon from frozen more easily so that you don’t have to wait for it to thaw out. There are better ways to do it than the microwave!

INGREDIENTS

– Frozen bacon

This is my favorite way to cook bacon from frozen. It’s fast and the bacon cooks evenly. It’s perfect if you want to top a salad with bacon, or add bacon to a bake, casserole, or quiche.

Unwrap the bacon and put it on a cutting board.

1

Use a sharp knife to cut across all of the slices (as opposed to lengthwise along the slices). You want to cut about 1/2 inch pieces.

2

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the frozen pieces of bacon. Cover the skillet to speed up the defrosting.

3

Stir the bacon often to help it break apart into lardons as it defrosts, and to help it to cook evenly.

4

Once most of the bacon has broken apart, increase the heat to medium-high and cook the bacon lardons until they are to the desired crispness.
