Easy Microwave Bacon

Disclaimer: based on a review, i do not recommend using a paper plate. This is a quick and easy way to get nice crispy/chewy bacon in the microwave. I've been making it this way for years, and thought i would share. This method sure beats the spattered grease mess all over the stove top from pan frying, or having to use the oven in the hot summertime. Enjoy! Note: cooking times will vary according to your microwave, the type of bacon, and your desired level of crispness/ chewiness, so feel free to adjust cooking times as necessary. If this is the first time you use my method, be sure to closely monitor the process and check often.

Steps

On a microwave-safe dish , lay down 2 sheets white paper towels.
Place 6 thick slices bacon on the paper towels.
Cover the bacon slices with 1 sheet of white paper towel.
Microwave on high for 5 to 6 minutes.
Rotate dish and microwave on high for about 5 to 6 minutes more , or until done to your liking.
Be careful not to burn the bacon.
Remove from microwave.
Your bacon is ready !.
