Begin by placing thick-cut bacon strips in a shallow dish. Pour your favorite wing sauce over the bacon, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let the bacon marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated bacon strips. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes per side until crispy and golden brown. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

While the bacon is cooking, rinse and dry your chosen lettuce leaves thoroughly. Gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Once the bacon has cooled slightly, place a few strips in each lettuce leaf. Add optional toppings such as diced tomatoes, scallions, or avocado.

Arrange the assembled Bacon Lettuce Cups on a platter, ready to serve immediately. Enjoy your flavorful creation!
