Enjoy the freshest and most flavorful meals cooked in an
instant! Stir-fry cooking retains moisture, color and texture as
it’s fast and hot, and the meats and vegetables are stirred
constantly (not sitting in oil or water). Light, bright flavors and
crisp, crunchy ingredients make any meal better...check
out our sample recipes and create your own. And a big plus
is the ceramic, non-stick coating that makes this grill so easy
to clean. Enjoy!
