Microwave Dutch Oven Potatoes

I searched and found this recipe on the internet. It was submitted by Becky Low on KSL news channel. I haven’t tried it yet, but for those without a Dutch oven, or looking for quicker results, this may be worth a try. Nothing beats Dutch oven potatoes made outdoors though!
Ingredients:
6 baking potatoes, medium
1 onion, sliced
6 slices bacon, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

If a crispier bacon is desired microwave bacon 3-5 minutes. Stir once or twice during cooking to separate pieces. Bacon should not be crisp. Peel or scrub potatoes, slice into 1/4 inch slices or 1/2 inch cubes. Slice onion and separate into rings. Layer bacon, onion, and potatoes in a microwave safe baking dish. Salt and pepper each layer to taste. Cover. Microwave on high for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender (rotate dish 1/4 turn 3 times during cooking, stir potatoes). Allow potatoes to stand 2-3 minutes before serving.
