Fantastic Microwaved Beet Chips

Submitted by Haversac

"This is a great way to cook beets (I adapted it from a potato chip recipe). Adjust the seasoning to your liking."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 3
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1 -2 fresh beet, cleaned
• oil
• salt

directions

1. Slice beets very thin. I use a mandolin set at the thinnest setting.
2. Brush a thin layer of oil in the bottom of a microwave safe pan. I use my pampered chef stoneware.
3. Lay the beet slices in the pan, slightly overlapping. They will shrink significantly, so no need to leave "breathing" room.
4. Sprinkle LIGHTLY with salt. Since they shrink so much, the salt taste will be more concentrated when done.
5. Microwave on high. My first pan takes 6 minutes. Each pan full after takes 5 - 5 1/2 minutes, since the pan's hot.
6. There's no need to re-oil the pan after the first set.
7. Feel free to experiment with different flavors on the chips.
