TIPS
Look for grill pans in most department stores and cookware shops.
Look for a pan with a thick, heavy metal body that absorbs heat and distributes it evenly. Narrow ridges will produce cleaner grill marks.
Buy a pan with an easy-care surface for quick cleanup.
Our cooking tips:
Always heat the grill at least 3 minutes before cooking, until the surface is hot but not superheated -- a superheated grill pan will burn the food's exterior before it has cooked through.
To prevent sticking, lightly oil the surface of the food. To avoid smoking, don't oil the pan.
Drain and pat dry marinated food so the marinade does not burn in the pan.
If you want a crosshatch pattern, rotate each piece of food a quarter turn on each side.
