7. Preheat Oven

At this point, turn on the oven and let it preheat at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This step is important because if you don’t let the oven get warm before the food goes into it, the dish won’t cook evenly. What usually happens, then is the inside of the dish is not done by the time the outside gets burned. Let the oven get to the right temperature before putting in the food because you want a warm, fully-cooked dish with a brown top. You’ll be busy with other tasks anyway.
