Cooking bacon in the microwave is actually very easy if it’s done correctly and you get lazy to cook in on the stove. Kitchen Tips on Online on YouTube shows how to cook bacon in the microwave. It might sound like a weird idea, but it can be done. Do not cook the bacon in paper towels because it will not cook in the fat. It’s important that it cooks in its own fat because it has the best flavor. The paper towel would trap the steam and affects the flavor and texture of the bacon. However, if you don’t care about that, you can choose that option.
Supplies:
- microwave plate cover with vents
Directions:
First, do not cook the bacon in the microwave uncovered because it will pop around and create a filthy mess inside. The best way to cook bacon in the microwave is to allow it to cook in the fat and allow the steam to vent. So, you can purchase a lid cover that has vents to cover the plate with bacon. Cook the bacon for about 1 minute per slice.

Next, remove the lid cover off the plate and you can see the pork fat that the bacon is cooked in. The color on the bacon looks just as good as if you were able to cook it on the stove. Continue to watch Kitchen Tips on Online tutorial on YouTube for full instructions and details.
Overall, it can be odd to cook bacon in the microwave, but if you are busy in the mornings, pop the bacon on a plate and let it microwave while you are doing something. I want to try this method because it would be interesting to see the results for myself.
