OVEN-BAKED BACON
I always bake bacon in the oven! You just need to plan a bit ahead as the bacon takes longer. With baking, the bacon grease stays nice and clean and you can reuse it to saute vegetables or eggs for extra flavor.

KITTENCAL'S METHOD FOR OVEN COOKED BACON
When I make this I make lots and then freeze in bags using my Food Saver storage system, this method saves time and not to mention the greasy clean up that comes with frying, I pour the grease into a Pyrex measuring cup then save and refrigerate overnight or until hard then scoop out a few tablespoons at a time, freeze on plates then I place in freezer bags to use in recipes to add flavor, you may save or discard the grease --- since RZ system would not accept one ingredient I have listed 1-1/2 pounds bacon separately, you may of course use as much as you like.

KITTENCAL'S CRISPY COATING MIX FOR MOIST OVEN BAKED CHICKEN
I developed this coating recipe years ago, it makes the most wonderful crispy moist oven-baked chicken you will ever have, I always serve this chicken with recipe #145064 on the side to drizzle over the chicken *SO* good! Make certain to purchase and use only the already crushed boxed cornflake crumbs for this, and use only Shake and Bake Southern Fried flavor, I have tried many other flavors and brands and they are just not as good! The chicken will cook even more after you remove it from the oven and let it sit, so I like to bake mine for only about 40 minutes, and leave it on top of the stove until ready to serve, I find that it is even moister this way!

Steps:
- Wash chicken pieces in cold water (leave the chicken moist so the coating will hold on to it) set aside.
- In the plastic mixing bag that comes with the coating mix, combine all ingredients (except the chicken pieces) and shake bag to combine thoroughly.
- Set oven to 425°F.
- Set oven rack to lowest-bottom position.
- Line a large 15-inch baking sheet with foil, and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Shake each piece of chicken in the bag to coat thoroughly with mixture and place on the baking sheet.
- Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
- Bake for 45 minutes (you might have to bake for about 5 minutes more if the backs are attached to the legs).
- *NOTE* Sometimes if you are using frozen defrosted chicken there might still be some water left in the chicken that will come out when baking, if you find that there is a lot of water in your pan about halfway through baking, just carefully remove the pan with a towel or oven mitts and hold over the sink to drain the water, and place back in the oven to bake (just enough to drain, careful not to remove the chicken from the pan and throw into the sink!).
- The less water in the bottom of the pan the crispier you chicken will be).

Steps:
- Using an electic knife or a serrated knife remove the corn kernels from the cob (I use an electric knife for this, it takes less time).
- Place the corn kernels in a large pot; add in water to cover the corn then add in 1 tablespoon salt (add in more water to cover the kernels if needed).
- Bring to a full boil, the reduce heat and boil ONLY until the kernels turn a darker yellow (about 2 minutes, this will not take long).
- Place in a large strainer and rinse under very cold water or plunge into a bowl of ice water.
- Shaking the strainer strain out as much water as possible.
- Mix in 1/2 cup sugar using a wooden spoon until combined with the niblets (this creates a sugar-pac and helps preserve the corn and keeps the corn crisp while freezing).
- Spread the sugar-coated kernels onto a large 15 x 10-inch baking sheet then freeze until completely frozen.
- Place in freezer bags or vacum pac.

KITTENCAL'S METHOD FOR CLARIFIED BUTTER
Just wanted to share the method that I use for clarifed butter...why all the extra work to remove the solids from the butter? Simply stated, clarified butter burns less readily because the milk solids are removed during the clarifying process. Also, you can store your clarified butter longer than regular butter. If you don't want "blackened" potato pancakes, you will want to make the effort to cook them in clarified butter, it is wonderful for cooking! You can refrigerate clarified butter for up to 2 weeks, or freeze it for up to 2 months. 2 pounds of regular butter should yield about 3 cups clarified butter, once you cook with this, you will never want to be without it, and it's so easy to make too! It is best however to use all unsalted butter.

Tips:
- Use thick-cut bacon for best results.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Leave some space between each bacon strip so that they cook evenly.
- Bake the bacon at a high temperature (400°F) for a short amount of time (15-20 minutes). This will help to render the fat and crisp up the bacon.
- Keep an eye on the bacon while it's cooking. You don't want to overcook it or it will become dry and crumbly.
- Use tongs to remove the bacon from the baking sheet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Enjoy your bacon! It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Conclusion:
Kittencal's method for oven-cooked bacon is a great way to get perfectly cooked bacon every time. It's easy to do and doesn't require any special equipment. Plus, it's a healthier way to cook bacon than frying it in a pan. So next time you're craving bacon, give this method a try. You won't be disappointed!
