Microwave Potato Chips

1 . Stage

Fold a piece of parchment paper into eighths, paper airplane-style. Place the tip of the folded parchment in the center of a microwave-safe plate and measure the radius; cut remaining parchment off and unfold into a circle to fit the plate.

2 . Stage

Slice potato thinly using a mandolin and transfer to a bowl of cold water; rinse off as much starch as possible. Transfer potato slices to a clean kitchen towel to dry; blot tops as well to ensure they are as dry as possible.

3 . Stage

Brush some oil over the parchment paper. Working in batches, place as many potato slices on the oiled parchment that will fit; brush tops of slices with more oil.

4 . Stage

Cook in a microwave for 3 ½ minutes. Flip and continue to cook until browned and stiff, about 4 minutes more, checking the appearance often to make sure they don't burn.

5 . Stage

Transfer chips to a cold plate and season with salt. Let cool before serving. Continue with remaining potato slices. Microwave Potato Chips. Chef John
