7 Minute Potato Chips

by Nancy

1 Large Russet Potato, Scrubbed
1 bowl cold water
Seasonings of your choice

Slice the potato into the thinnest slices possible. Try to make the slices even and thin. Place slices in ice water briefly to remove excess starch.  Remove from water and pat dry.


Place a piece of parchment on a large glass plate- or alternatively, if your microwave has a glass turntable, you can place the parchment paper directly on the turntable instead.



Arrange the potato slices on the parchment paper. Be sure they are not touching, as they'll stick together. Season as desired.

Microwave on Full power for 3 minutes. Remove from microwave, flip them all over, return to microwave, reduce the power to 70% and cook for another 3 minutes. If you've hand sliced your chips, you may need to cook for an additional minute or 2 at 70% power.


Repeat until all the "chips" are crispy and golden.
