Cooking Instructions 21 BROILING Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. Preheating Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks. (Remove the broiler pan before preheating. Foods will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the control(s) to BROIL as instructed in this manual. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done. To Broil Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve. Always pull the rack out to the "stop" position before turning or removing food. Broiling Tips The broiler pan and it grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. Broiling Times Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or decrease broiling times, or move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item closely.
