For lunch or dinner, the griddle can be transformed into a grill by preheating it on the stovetop. The ridges on some versions provide beautiful grill marks to steaks, chicken, or vegetables, adding a touch of sophistication to your home-cooked meals. For those who enjoy stir-frying, the ample surface allows you to toss ingredients freely, promoting even cooking without the risk of overcrowding that often leads to steaming rather than frying.
