3792. CANDIED HABANERO BACON

8 slices of streaky bacon
1/3 cup packed or 65g dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground habanero or to taste

Preheat your oven to 350°F or 180°C and line your baking pan (with sides to catch the rendering fat) with foil. This is just to make cleanup easier. Place your wire rack on top of the baking pan. Just for the record, my pan is 11x16 inches or 28x40cm. Arrange bacon in single layer on top of rack. Bake in the preheated oven for about seven minutes. Meanwhile, mix your brown sugar and ground habanero together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the bacon with half the brown sugar/habanero mixture. Bake 5-7 minutes longer. Turn the bacon over and sprinkle it with the remaining brown sugar and pepper. Bake 3-4 minutes longer or until the sugar is melted and bubbly. Remove from oven. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
