Tomato-Bacon Gravy

This is great served over rice.

Step: 1

Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 15 minutes. Remove the bacon to cool, leaving the drippings in the skillet.

Step: 2

Stir the vegetable oil and flour into the bacon drippings. Cook and stir until the flour has turned nearly as brown as the bacon, about 5 minutes. Stir in the onions and cook until the onions soften and turn translucent, about 5 minutes; stir in the stewed tomatoes, breaking them apart with your spoon. Crumble the cooked bacon into the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the gravy has reduced to your desired thickness, about 10 minutes.
