COOKING FISH AND SEAFOOD
1. Arrange fish and seafood on a microwave rack (fillets, steaks, lobster) or in an appropriate glass casserole
(scallops).
2. Cover with wax paper and set on glass turntable in a microwave.
3. Calculate cooking time by multiplying weight of the fish or seafood by the time recommended per pound.
4. The microwave will cook on P-HI unless another power level is entered at the time of cooking. To choose another
power level, and begin cooking, press Power continuously to program the recommended power level. Press the
number pad to program the calculated time. Press START.
5. Check progress about halfway through the cooking time; turn over, rearrange or shield, as needed.
6. Within several minutes before the end of cooking check fish or seafood to determine if time needs adjusting. Wait
until the stand time before making the final decision.
