How to cook deliciously - Bacon Weave Pizza

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 400°. Line a large baking sheet pan with parchment paper. To form a bacon weave, line six bacon slices side-by-side on the baking sheet. Lift up and fold back every other bacon slice, then lay a seventh slice on top in the center.

2. Stage

Lay folded-back slices on top of seventh slice, then fold back the alternate slices. Place eighth slice on top, next to the seventh slice, weaving like you did before. Repeat this process four more times to complete the weave.

3. Stage

Place an inverted, oven-proof cooling rack on top of the bacon slices. This helps them stay flat.

4. Stage

Bake 23 to 25 minutes, or until bacon starts to crisp.

5. Stage

Remove baking sheet from oven and pour off as much fat as you can. Carefully remove rack, then spread with pizza sauce leaving ½-inch or so for crust. Top with mozzarella, pepper, onions, olives, and Parmesan.

6. Stage

Return sheet to oven and continue baking until cheese is melty, another 10 minutes.
