Broiling - Magic Chef CES1350AAH Owner's Manual

Broiling is usedfortendercutsofmeator marinated
meats, p oultry, fishandsomefruitsandvegetables. The
foodis placed directly under thebroilelement.
Cooking timeisdetermined b ythedesired degree of
doneness a ndthedistance between thefoodandthe
element.

• Before broiling, trim excess fat to prevent excessive
spattering or smoking. Cut slashes in the outer edges
of the fat to prevent curling during cooking.
• Season meat after cooking. Salt tends to draw juices
out of the meat and delay browning.
• Preheat broil element 3 minutes for optimum browning.
• Use a broiler pan with an insert designed to drain
excess liquid and fat away from the cooking surface.
This is to prevent spatters and smoke.
• When broiling in an electric oven, the door should be
opened to the broil stop position (opened about
4-inches).
• For a brown exterior and rare interior, meat should be
close to the broil element. For well-done meat, place
the broiler pan farther from the element.
Increasing the distance between the meat and the broil
element will help reduce spattering and smoking.
Foods that require turning should be turned only once
during broiling. Turn after half the recommended
cooking time.
NOTE: Broil times may increase if range is installed on
208 volts.
