Once you learn how to cook bacon in the microwave, you'll never want to prepare it any other way. It's super quick and cleanup is a breeze!
Print Recipe
Line a microwaveable plate or sheet with paper towels.
Arrange the bacon strips on the plate leaving at least a quarter inch between slices. Cover with a paper towel layer.
Microwave in 30-second increments until bacon is crisp and golden brown.
Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your bacon. Thinner slices require a shorter time than thick bacon.
Cook in short increments for the best results. I like to check on the strips in 30-second intervals to get the perfect bacon.
Don't try to cook too much bacon at a time. Cooking only 4 to 6 bacon strips of bacon at a time works best.
