Microwave Grill Tray Lekue Microwave Grill XL 270mm x 207mm

The Lekue Microwave Grill XL (270 x 207 mm) is a reusable silicone grill tray designed to brown, crisp and finish small portions of food in microwave ovens. Made for countertop microwave use, the tray provides a heat-resistant surface that helps achieve roasted textures for vegetables, fish, poultry and small cuts of meat without needing to preheat a conventional oven. Its flat, perforated design promotes airflow and fat drainage to reduce sogginess during short high-heat cycles.

Advantages

The silicone construction is heat resistant and flexible, making the tray easy to handle, store and clean. The tray’s elevated and perforated surface encourages even browning and allows liquids to drain away from food, improving texture when crisping or finishing dishes. Because it is intended for microwave use, the tray enables faster meal preparation and reheating while avoiding additional cookware or oven preheating.

Suitable for

• Crisping and finishing vegetables and sliced potatoes
• Browning fillets of fish or small portions of poultry
• Reheating and crisping ready meals or leftovers
• Preparing small cuts of meat or skewers in a microwave
• Quick meal prep when conventional oven use is impractical

When it may not be suitable

The tray is sized for small to medium portions and is not intended for large roasts or whole poultry; larger items may not fit or brown evenly. It is designed specifically for microwave grilling and finishing — it is not a replacement for high-temperature broilers or conventional oven roasting when deep browning or long roasting times are required.

Key specifications

• Material: heat-resistant silicone
• External dimensions: approximately 270 mm x 207 mm
• Design: perforated/elevated surface for airflow and fat drainage
• Intended use: microwave grilling, crisping and finishing

How to use

Place the Lekue Microwave Grill XL on a microwave-safe plate or directly in the microwave according to appliance manufacturer guidance. Arrange food in a single layer on the elevated surface to allow air circulation and drainage. Use short high-heat intervals and monitor cooking progress to avoid over-browning; turn or rearrange items as needed to promote even crisping. Allow the tray to cool briefly before handling and clean after use.

What to consider before purchase

• Check microwave interior dimensions to ensure the tray fits comfortably.
• Consider the portion sizes you typically cook — the tray is best for small to medium servings.
• Verify dishwasher compatibility with your preferred cleaning method and follow care instructions.
• Confirm your microwave allows use of accessories and follow safety guidance from the microwave manufacturer.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pre-dry wet surfaces and use brief, monitored high-power bursts rather than long continuous heating. Arrange food in a single layer and flip halfway through cooking for more uniform browning. Do not use with very large or bone-in roasts; reserve the tray for finishing, reheating and quick crisping tasks.
