The Method: How To Bake a Potato in the Microwave. The Result: Super-fast cooking time with soft skins. Rub the potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle them with salt and pepper, and prick them with the tines of a fork. Place all the potatoes on a microwave-safe dish and microwave at full power for five minutes. Turn them over and microwave for another three to five minutes. If still hard in the middle, microwave in additional one-minute bursts until cooked through.
So, I like to jumpstart the cooking process with the microwave. Clean and poke your potatoes as described above. Then, wrap âem in plastic wrap and pop it into a microwave for 5 minutes. (If you use this trick a lot, you can even invest in or make a reusable potato sack.) Then, carefully remove your plastic wrap and place potatoes on a baking sheet. Season with oil, salt and pepper.
