Pumpkin Chips
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. If desired, when making pumpkin chips, you can use not only classic spices such as salt and ground black pepper, but also other seasonings—for example, vegetable seasoning. Check doneness every 20 seconds, as the chips can easily burn. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.

Step 4
Grease the microwave tray with vegetable oil and place the pumpkin slices on it. Don't use too much oil, or the slices will absorb it, turn soft, and won't crisp up.

Step 5
Place the tray in the microwave and set the appliance to 1 minute. After the time is up, check whether the chips are done—they should shrink to about half their size and turn golden brown. Remember that they will still be soft. While they are still soft, transfer the chips to a plate and arrange the next batch of slices. Cook it the same way as the first batch. As they cool, the chips will become crisp and brittle.

Step 6
Serve the chips chilled. The only downside is they disappear quickly!
