How to grill in the oven

If you’ve never tried it before, learning how to grill in the oven is easier than you might think. It’s a great way to get that crispy, caramelised finish without needing a barbecue or special equipment. With a hot oven, the right rack position and a few simple tricks, you’ll be cooking up flavour-packed meals with minimal fuss and hardly any mess.

Method

Step 1

Move your oven racks to be as close as possible to the heating elements.

Step 2

Preheat oven on high between 200 and 250 degrees C.

Step 3

If you have a grill pan/skillet that is oven friendly, place it in the oven so it heats up with the oven.

Step 4

Place your food on the pan, flipping the food halfway through the cook time.
