Broil
The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poul-
try and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with
the door closed. The benefits of broiling include:
Fast and efficient cooking.
Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.
Tips Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.
Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Use the broil pan and grid included with the oven.
Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from
the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
Turn meats once during the recommended cook time (see Broil Chart for exam-
ples).
When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as
Corningware® .
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex® ); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.
