Potato chips in the microwave.
1 serving
15 minutes
Potato chips are a crispy delight from American cuisine. Their history begins in 1853 when chef George Crum first created them from thinly sliced potatoes. The modern version, made in the microwave, is a quick way to enjoy a favorite snack without oil and frying. Thinly sliced potatoes seasoned with salt and spices turn golden and crispy in just a few minutes. It's the perfect snack for TV evenings or unexpected guests. The ease of preparation makes this recipe versatile – you can experiment with different spices to create unique flavor combinations. Simplicity, crunch, and rich potato flavor are what make these chips so appealing!
1
Wash the potatoes with a brush and peel them (if desired), then slice them into thin rounds or wedges (it's best to use a mandoline - a special grater with a holder for the product).
- Potato: 4 pieces
2
Lay the potatoes in a single layer on parchment paper (baking paper), or you can use a plate instead, but in this case, it must be greased with oil beforehand, otherwise the potatoes will stick. Add salt and spices to taste.
- Potato: 4 pieces
- Spices: to taste
- Salt: to taste

Cook for about 5-7 minutes at 700 W. It's easy to determine the readiness of the chips by their color. If the potato turns light brown — take it out! But don't take it out earlier, as the potato won't have the crispiness typical of chips. During cooking, check the chips every minute to minimize the risk of burning. After cooking, let them cool.
