5.3 Broiler pan position at lower broiler
For best results place the broiler pan horizontally and make sure it is centered over the
burner (see illustration).
To brown food with thickness less than 2,0 cm is recommended it is recommended a time
around 12 minutes, for example toasted bread.
For food thicker than 2,0 cm (boneless) it is recommended an approximate time of 20 to 30
minutes, meat for hamburgers for example.
For food thicker than 3.5 cm it is recommended an approximate time of 40 to 50 minutes,
chicken breast for example.
Constantly check the doneness of food on the lower broiler to prevent browning on the sur-
face
