How to cook bacon in the microwave
Prepare a microwave-safe dish, preferably glass or pyrex.
Place several layers of paper towels over the dish. The paper towels will absorb all the bacon grease, leaving a mess-free kitchen, which means no dirty dishes to wash.

Available options:
1). If you're using a large, sturdy dish, make sure to grate the back sides into smaller pieces first. A stainless steel dish is a good idea.;

4). Lay up to six uncooked bacon strips across the paper towels. Don't overlap them, or the bacon won't cook evenly.;
