Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large, rimmed sheet pan with heavy-duty foil. Place a wire rack on the foil-lined sheet pan.

2. Arrange the bacon on the wire rack so that each slice is flat and not overlapping.

3. In a small bowl, mix together the maple syrup and Sriracha. Brush the maple-Sriracha mixture onto both sides of the bacon. You may not need quite all of the mixture. Cook the bacon, rotating the pan partway through cooking, until the edges of the bacon are beginning to caramelize and crisp and the center is cooked as well done as you like it, 25 to 30 minutes.
