Description from the creator
Master the art of broiling in just four easy steps. Broiling is one of the fastest ways to get that delicious, grill-like flavor—right in your kitchen. Using direct, high heat, it quickly browns and cooks food, much like grilling—just from above instead of below.
In this video, you’ll learn how to broil with confidence, including how to prep your meat for the best results, trim excess fat to prevent flare-ups, and keep proteins from curling under high heat. We’ll also show you how to keep lean meats like chicken and fish moist and flavorful.
You’ll get practical tips for setting up your broiler pan (or alternatives if you don’t have one), positioning your oven rack, and knowing exactly how close your food should be to the heat source. Plus, we’ll cover which foods need intense heat and which benefit from a little extra distance. We’ll also walk through the best tools to use—like when to grab tongs versus a spatula—and how to tell when your steak, chicken, or fish (like salmon or tilapia) is perfectly cooked. Finally, you’ll learn why letting your meat rest after broiling makes all the difference.
