Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crisp and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.
Remove the bacon from the skillet and transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate. Crumble the bacon once cooled and set aside.
Carefully reserve 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease in the skillet and discard the rest.
Lower the heat to medium-low and whisk the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and water into the bacon grease until fully combined and smooth.
Allow the mixture to heat through gently, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes. Do not let it boil.
Add the crumbled bacon back to the skillet and stir to incorporate.
Remove the skillet from the heat and allow the dressing to cool slightly before serving warm.
Drizzle the dressing over your favorite salad or dish, and enjoy immediately!
