Bacon

Caramelized Onion

Method

Cooking the Bacon

1

Fry the Bacon

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon strips. Cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.

Caramelizing the Onion

2

Caramelize the Onion

In the same skillet used for the bacon (drain excess grease, leaving about 1 tbs), add the olive oil and sliced onion. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Assembly

3

Combine Ingredients

Once the bacon is crispy and the onions are caramelized, layer the bacon on a serving platter. Top with the caramelized onions and sprinkle the shredded Tillamook cheddar cheese over the top. Finish with fresh thyme leaves for added flavor.
