Ingredients
- 8 slices Thick-cut bacon
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Lay the thick-cut bacon slices flat in the skillet without overlapping. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until crispy and golden brown. Remove and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
Step 3
Carefully pour out most of the bacon grease from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon for added flavor.
Step 4
Mince the garlic clove and sauté it in the reserved bacon grease over low heat for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the unsalted butter to the skillet and let it melt completely, stirring to combine with the garlic.
Step 6
Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 7
Stir in the honey, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Step 8
Return the cooked bacon slices to the skillet, coating them generously with the honey cream sauce.
Step 9
Serve immediately, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Pair with fresh bread, eggs, or enjoy on its own!
