Grilling is a cooking technique in which food is cooked over an open flame or hot coals.
This can be done outdoors on a grill or indoors using a grill pan or broiler.
Grilling adds a unique flavor to food and is often used for meats, vegetables, and fruits. The high heat of grilling quickly sears the food, creating a crispy exterior while retaining the moisture inside.
Grilling can be done using direct heat, where the food is placed directly over the flame or coals, or indirect heat, where the food is placed to the side of the heat source and cooked using the heat radiating from the flames or coals.
