Ingredients
- 12 oz thick cut bacon reserve ⅓ cup of the rendered bacon fat
- 1 shallot, minced or a small red onion
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon granulated garlic
- ½ teaspoon granulated onion
- kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Lay out bacon on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Place into a COLD oven and turn the heat to 400°. Bake until bacon is crisp.
- Carefully, drain off the bacon fat into a glass measuring cup. You need ⅓ cup of the rendered bacon fat. Finely mince the crisped bacon and set aside.
- Sauté the minced shallot in a skillet until soft.
- In a mixing bowl add the remaining bacon renderings along with the shallot, apple cider vinegar, mustard, maple syrup, granulated onion and garlic. Mix together and check for salt levels. Add some if you would like, along with a pinch of fresh ground pepper.
- Stir in the minced bacon.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- This is not the recipe for lean cuts of bacon. We want at least ⅓ cup of rendered bacon fat, so I do suggest a thicker cut, fattier bacon.
- If you don't have ⅓ cup of bacon fat after cooking the bacon, add enough avocado or olive oil to make that amount.
