Enjoy a quick and easy way to make crispy potato chips using your microwave. Perfect for a snack or a side dish.
Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them thinly using a mandoline slicer.
Thinner slices will result in crispier chips, so aim for uniform thickness.
Pat the potato slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Removing moisture helps the chips crisp up better in the microwave.
Lightly coat a microwave-safe plate with olive oil.
Ensure the plate is evenly coated to prevent sticking.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the plate.
Avoid overlapping the slices to ensure even cooking.
Microwave the slices on high for 3-6 minutes, checking frequently to avoid burning.
Cooking times may vary based on your microwave's power.
Carefully remove the chips from the microwave and sprinkle with sea salt.
Add your favorite seasonings for a personalized touch.
Let the chips cool completely to achieve maximum crispiness.
Cooling allows the chips to firm up and become crunchier.
