Ingredients
- 8 pieces Bacon strips
- 4 sheets Paper towels
- 1 piece Microwave-safe plate
Directions
Step 1
Place two sheets of paper towels on a microwave-safe plate.
Step 2
Lay the bacon strips side by side on top of the paper towels, ensuring they do not overlap.
Step 3
Cover the bacon with the remaining two sheets of paper towels to prevent splatter and help with even cooking.
Step 4
Place the plate in the microwave. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on the microwave's power, but start with setting your microwave to high power for 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 5
Carefully check the bacon after the initial cooking time. If desired crispiness is not achieved, continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, checking after each interval, until the bacon is crispy to your preference.
Step 6
Once cooked, carefully remove the plate from the microwave using oven mitts, as it will be hot.
Step 7
Allow the bacon to rest for a minute to cool slightly and to let any remaining oil be absorbed by the paper towels.
Step 8
Transfer the bacon to a serving plate and enjoy immediately.
