Easy, tasty, quick, and healthy microwaved potato chips
I've been a fan of pre-bake potato microwaving for years. But in all that time, I never considered slicing the taters and trying for microwaved potato chips. I wish I had, because it's a ridiculously quick and easy way to make a healthy snack -- no oil or questionable additives, just potato goodness in the blink of an eye.
Jugalbandi suggests: "Microwave for three sets of three minutes each at 50% power, 40% power, and 30% power. Turn after every three minutes. Reducing the power of the microwave is not essential, but if operating at full power reduce the time accordingly." Then, after the 3 nukes, let the chips rest for 5 minutes to crisp more and eat.
Well, I just tried it the lazy way -- sliced the potato, spread it on a plate, and nuked it at full power for 3 minutes. I flipped it and nuked for 2 more. The chips were browned done, and already super crunchy. So really, if you have a decent microwave, you can reduce the time to just 5 min. It's SO EASY. They're just plain potato flavor, and are already dry out of the microwave, so if you want flavors, I'd suggest a quick spice or herb rub before nuking.
Yum!
