Instructions (8 steps)

01On a cutting board, slice the potato into ⅛-inch (3 mm) slices.
02Dry the potato slices with a paper towel until there is no more moisture.
03Transfer the sliced potatoes to a bowl and coat in olive oil.
04Wipe down a large flat microwavable-safe plate with olive oil to prevent the chips from sticking.
05Place the chips on the plate in an even layer and sprinkle with salt.
06Microwave the chips on high for 6-7 minutes or until the chips just start to brown. When the chips develop some color remove them from the microwave and slowly peel from the plate. If chips are sticking, they can also be flipped halfway through!
07Repeat this process until all the potato slices are cooked.
