Instructions
- Pierce the potato with a fork multiple times to allow steam to escape during cooking.
- Place the potato in the microwave, ensuring it's not touching any other potatoes if cooking more than one. Cook on high for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Carefully flip the potato and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes on high. If cooking additional potatoes, add 1 minute of cooking time per side for each extra potato.
- Test the potato for doneness by piercing it with a knife; it should be tender throughout.
- Let the potato rest for 1 minute to cool slightly, then remove from the microwave. If not fully cooked, continue microwaving in 1-minute increments until tender.
- DEVOUR!
