BROILING TIPS

Placing food on broil rack allows the drippings to flow into the bake pan/drip tray and helps to prevent smoking from the broiler.

For best results, thaw frozen meat, poultry and fish before broiling.

If frozen steaks and chops are broiled, allow 1½ to 2 times the broiling time as required when fresh.

Trim excess fat from meat and score edges to prevent curling.

Brush foods to be broiled with oil and season as desired before broiling.

Fish fillets and steaks are delicate and should be broiled on bake pan/drip tray without the broiler rack.

There is no need to turn fish fillets during broiling. Carefully turn thick fish steaks midway through broiling cycle.

If broiler “pops” during broiling, reduce the temperature or lower the food in the oven.

Wash bake pan/drip tray and clean inside of oven after each use with non-abrasive cleaner and hot soapy water. Too much grease accumulation will cause smoking (J).
