Recipe

If potatoes are old, peel and slice thin, 1/16" in thickness, slicing across the potato.
If the potatoes are new or good skins, DO NOT PEEL, just scrub well, then slice them 1/16" in thickness, slicing across the potato.

Thinly slice potatoes using either a mandolin, or a regular vegetable peeler.

Spray a sheet of parchment paper or wax paper lightly with cooking spray, and lay potatoes out in a single layer.

Sprinkle with BBQ spice, and place in the microwave. Microwave on high, 5-7 minutes, until chips start to brown. (note): if you use any kind of cheeses, put cheese on after they come out of the microwave.

Remove from the microwave, and cool for a few seconds.

Note: a 10-oz raw potato will yield about 10 chips

Note: cooking times may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave.
