Microwave homemade potato chips

A couple of weeks ago we were having some people over for dinner and at the last minute I decided I needed something to go with our meatball subs. Hubby suggested homemade potato chips and I came across a fabulous recipe on allrecipes.com. You use your microwave and these turned out so yummy!

Microwave homemade potato chips
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 potato, sliced paper thin (peel optional) I used my mandoline from Pampered Chef
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Directions
1.Pour the vegetable oil into a plastic bag. Add the potato slices, and shake to coat.
2.Coat a large dinner plate lightly with oil or cooking spray. Arrange potato slices in a single layer on the dish.
3.Cook in the microwave for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned (if not browned, they will not become crisp). Times will vary depending on the power of your microwave. Remove chips from plate, and toss with salt (or other seasonings). Let cool. Repeat process with the remaining potato slices. You will not need to keep oiling the plate.

My first round took about 7 minutes and after the plate got hot (CAUTION: mine got extremely hot!) it didn't take as long. They were delicious with homemade french onion dip!
