Instead of serving the usual bacon, I like to prepare this recipe that calls for Canadian bacon instead. It's a special brunch recipe that's always well liked. Sue Draheim Ingredients:
1-1/4 pounds canadian bacon |
1-1/2 cups orange juice |
6 tablespoons brown sugar, divided |
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom |
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper |
3 bay leaves |
Directions:
1. In an 11-in. x 7-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray, arrange bacon in two rows, overlapping the slices. 2. In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, 4 tablespoons brown sugar, mustard, cardamom and pepper until blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Boil for 1 minute. Pour over bacon; arrange bay leaves on top. 3. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 20-25 minutes. Discard bay leaves and all but 1/4 cup pan juices. Sprinkle remaining brown sugar over bacon. 4. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 3-5 minutes or until bacon is glazed and bubbly. Serve immediately. Yield: 6-8 servings. |
