Ultimate Meat Lovers Bacon Tacos - thin

Method

• to pan fry: large skillet lightly greased..
• to oven cook.. preheat oven to 400F
• on a large work surface.. covered in parchment paper.. lay 3 slices bacon side by side so they are just touching each other.
• take one slice of bacon and weave it through the other 3 slices up down up.
• take another slice and weave it so its touching but not overlapping last weave and this time its down up down.
• take another slice and repeat what u did in step 4.
• trim off some excess bacon ( save for later use!)
• to oven cook: place parchment with weave in a cookie sheet and bake about 35-40 minutes or until nice and crispy!
• flipping halfway through.
• I do not like this method as the edges tend to burn before the middle is done.
• to pan cook.. gently flip the weave into a hot skillet( u may have to fix or adjust bacon weave) and fry until the first side is crispy.
• using a large spatula gently and carefully flip it over to crisp up 2nd side.
• total about 10 minutes per side.
• depending on how high of heat.
• I use medium high.
• when done.. transfer bacon to a paper towel to drain.
• while bacon is still hot fold it in half resting it on something to keep the mouth of the taco open so u can fill it later.
• I used an oval 1/3c.
• measuring cup.
• u can use a handle of a large spoon or whatever.
• repeat with rest of bacon.
• you will end up with 2 bacon taco shells!
• fry up bacon u trimmed off the excess and set aside on a paper towel to drain.
• if using green pepper, onion etc.
• using same pan u fried bacon in drain out bacon grease and reserve for later.
• sautee veggies in bacon grease until tender and set aside.
• next.. chop or shredd your ham.
• in a bowl wisk together milk, eggs, ham, pepper and any veggies u sssauted and leftover bacon trimmings u cooked up earlier.
• heat same skillet u did veggies in.. add a tbl.
• of bacon grease and pour egg mix in.
• keep stirring and cook until scrambled eggs form and eggs are cooked through.
• grab ur bacon taco and fill it with eggs and sprinkle with desired amount of cheese.
• serve and enjoy!
