Easy Microwave Bacon


Just a quick and easy way to get nice crispy bacon in the microwave, YUM!! Been making it this way for years, and thought I would share. Enjoy!

SERVES 3

Ingredients:

6 slices thick slice bacon (such as Hormel Black Label 'Thick Slice')
3 white paper towels

Directions:

1. On a microwave-safe dish (such as a Corelle dinner plate/or 8 x 10-inch Pyrex glass baking dish), lay down 2 sheets (double layer) white paper towels. Place 6 slices bacon on the paper towels (not overlapping each other). Cover the bacon slices with 1 sheet of white paper towel.

2. Microwave on high for 5 to 6 minutes.

3. Rotate dish and microwave on high for about 5 to 6 minutes more, or until done to your liking (I like mine crisp). Be careful not to burn the bacon.

4. Remove from microwave. Your bacon is ready!

5. NOTE: You can use regular slice bacon as well, just reduce cooking time by a minute or two.
