I agree with Jim, I cook bacon that way a lot.

I recommend using paper plates with paper towel lining the bottom then bacon then more paper towel on top. When you want to cook more bacon, you going to have to use another paper plate.

An alternate option is to find something else to fix...

Got it! It came out very well. 4 minutes for 3 thick sliced pieces. (the way I like it). I have the bacon tray where you lay the strips on the tray. Surprisingly, it'* just as good as fried bacon.

I put two layers of paper towels on a flat plate, put the bacon stips on the paper towel and then one paper towel on the top. As Gumball said, 1 minute per strip usually works well. Check on it as it nukes to make sure you haven't overcooked it. You can always add time if the bacon is thick and needs a little more nuking.
