Garlic Parmesan Bacon Knots

I am a passionate beef eater.  There is a rare food that I will choose over the opportunity to sink my teeth into a brilliant red succulent steak - unless, of course, it's BACON!!!!

These bacon knots will knock the socks off your guests or provide you with the tastiest snack you can imagine.  The recipe scales perfectly from making one in your toaster over, to making thousands for the Oscar's after party!


Start now..  In 30 minutes you are going to have a DELICIOUS treat!











Ingredients


12 slices bacon
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan
Directions


  1. Preheat oven to 425° 
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  3. Tie each slice of bacon in a double knot and place on sheet tray. 
  4. Season each knot with Italian seasoning, garlic powder and red pepper flakes.
  5. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until almost crisp. 
  6. Remove from oven and grate Parmesan over knots. 
  7. Return to oven and bake 6 to 7 minutes more, or until desired crispness is achieved. 
  8. Let cool slightly before serving.
Cook's Notes:
  • Usually I make some kind of suggestion here  about variations on the theme or ways to achieve a different taste.  Not this time..  These may well be the PERFECT bariatric snack. 
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator.  Allow to come to room temperature or heat gently before serving
