Directions for Preparing Fish and Seafood
Use fresh or defrosted clean fish. Arrange fish in a single
layer in dish. For best results, avoid overlapping edges
as this will prevent fish from cooking evenly.
Place thicker sections toward edge of the dish, (i.e., tail
sections toward center).
Cover dish loosely, but completely with plastic wrap.
TO COOK BY TIME: Arrange shrimp and scallops in
single layer in dish. Cook on the recommended power
level and minimum time in the chart. Rearrange or stir
shrimp or scallops halfway through cooking.
Test for doneness before adding extra cooking time.
The color of seafood and fish should be opaque and the
fish should flake easily when tested with a fork. If
undercooked, return to oven and cook 15 to 30 seconds
longer at recommended power level.
After cooking, let stand, covered, 3 to 5 minutes before
serving. Stand time allows the internal temperature to
equalize throughout the food and thereby completes the
cooking process.
TO COOK BY SENSOR COOKING:
Arrange fish, shrimp, or scallops in a single layer in dish.

Directions for Preparing Casseroles
Prepare casseroles and stews according to recipe
directions. Stew meats are not browned before cooking.
Omit any oil or fat and flour used for browning. Fresh
and firm vegetables such as potatoes, carrots,
rutabagas and beans are added at the beginning of
cooking. Frozen vegetables and fresh vegetables with
soft texture such as zucchini, tomatoes or mushrooms
are added during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Defrosted frozen vegetables or canned vegetables are
added with the thickener. Place covered microwave-safe
dish in oven.
TO COOK BY TIME: Prepare casseroles or stew by
microwaving at lower power levels. MEDIUM and
MEDIUM-LOW power levels allows flavors to blend and
less tender cuts of meat to become tender.
