Achieve the viral, satisfying crunch of crispy rice paper bacon. This recipe recreates that amazing texture using simple ingredients for a fun, flavorful snack or topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 sheets Rice Paper
  • 4 slices Bacon (thin cut works best)
  • 1 tablespoon Water (for wetting rice paper)
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • Pinch of Salt

Instructions

  1. Lay one sheet of rice paper flat on a clean, damp surface.
  2. Lightly spritz or brush the rice paper with water until it is pliable but not fully saturated.
  3. Place one slice of bacon near one edge of the rice paper.
  4. Fold the sides of the rice paper over the bacon, then tightly roll the paper around the bacon, creating a small, sealed roll.
  5. Repeat this process for the remaining three bacon slices.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt.
  7. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over all sides of the bacon rolls.
  8. Heat a dry non-stick skillet over medium heat. You do not need oil as the bacon fat will render.
  9. Place the rolls seam-side down in the hot skillet.
  10. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, turning frequently, until the rice paper is golden brown, puffy, and very crispy, and the bacon inside is fully cooked.
  11. Remove from heat and let cool for one minute before slicing diagonally. Enjoy the crunch!

Notes

  • Keep your surface damp when handling the rice paper; too much water makes it tear easily.
  • Watch the rolls closely while cooking; the rice paper can burn quickly.
  • These are excellent crumbled over salads or soups for added texture.
