Made with Wright® Brand Naturally Hickory Smoked Extra Thick Flat-Pack® Sliced Bacon, 8-10 Slices per Pound

Directions

  1. Preheat the convection oven to 425°F.
  2. Lay half the Wright® Brand Naturally Hickory Smoked Extra Thick Sliced Bacon slices flat on a sheet pan in a single layer, then cook for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned but still pliable.
  3. Let bacon drain on a baking rack or paper towels. Any residual grease will cause the breading to coat incorrectly.
  4. Repeat the process with as much bacon as you would like.
  5. Preheat fryer to 350°F OR pour canola oil into a pot to a depth of about 2 inches and heat over medium heat to 350°F.
  6. Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until soft peaks form.
  7. Using a rubber spatula, fold one-quarter of the flour, then one-quarter of the club soda, at a time into the whites, folding thoroughly after each addition until batter is smooth.
  8. Working in batches, dip bacon into batter, then deep-fry, turning once, until bacon is golden brown and crisp, about 6 minutes per batch.
  9. Drain on a wire rack. Season to taste with salt and serve immediately.
  10. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces.
