Salty, smoky bacon is braised with onion, brown sugar, chicken broth, and Espelette pepper, then blended into a sweet-savory jam, in this recipe from Top Chef season 6 finalist Kevin Gillespie. Spread some on a biscuit with eggs for a rib-sticking breakfast sandwich, dollop it atop a bowl of creamy potato soup, or toss it with some charred okra.
Ingredients
8 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces
1/4 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth or stock
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon ground piment d’Espelette
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Preparation
