Easy, fast cooking with the portable Halogen tabletop oven - I love My Kids Blog (2024)

Ever since I have been married, I have grown a love for baking and cooking new recipes for my friends and family. Once I found that there was a mini table top oven at fa*gor America, I knew I had to have it! I thought, oh the endless things I could do with this tiny portable oven!

When I got this oven I was so excited! I read all of the awesome features it had, and was sold. You’re all so lucky because I get to tell you some of my favorite features with the Halogen Tabletop Oven. Oh by the way, isn’t this oven BEAUTIFUL!? Yes, I think so…just stare at it for a minute, and soak in it’s goodness.

The Halogen tabletop oven is my new favorite cooking tool. It’s fast and easy. It is small, but that’s because it’s a tabletop oven, so it should be small. This oven is an ENERGY SAVER. You can grill, broil, bake, steam, and even roast all in one tiny oven! This oven saves energy and cook 50% faster then regular ovens. I tried to figure out why it’s so fast. The reason being is that it is such a tiny space and the heat circulates very quickly and can’t escape anywhere.

A great feature the oven has is the handle on the lid. If the handle is up, it will automatically turn off. If it is down, it turns back on. (Look in picture below, notice the light is on, that is because the handle is down.)

The lid of the oven is the heaviest. The reason why is because this is where the heat comes from. It is just like a regular oven, with a heat source on top.

One thing I did notice on this part of the oven is that you had to turn both the timer and the temperature to turn the oven on. I am not quite sure why they do this, but there must be a reason? Maybe for safety reasons for children.

My favorite thing about the oven is the tongs that it came with. They are so perfect and I think they are meant to take out the grill trays without burning yourself. These tongs rock, and work well to take food out as well.

Okay you may ask what is so great about the photo above? Take a closer look, it fits in my tiny sink! I don’t know how many times I get frustrated when I have to wash the crock pot and it doesn’t fit in my sink too well because of the oval shape. Thank goodness to the Halogen oven for being ROUND! It has made my cleaning this oven very much enjoyable and easy!

THE TEST: PRE COOKED FROZEN CHICKEN

I had to try this oven out and see if it was all that and if it really cut the cooking time in half. My first victim was…pre cooked chicken nuggets and tator tots (DON’T LAUGH, it was for my daughter….and me).

The nuggets cooked very quickly they were frozen and usually in my regular oven they take about 20 minutes, and still a little here or there are cold in the center.

With my tabletop oven it took ten minutes. Now, this did make them not frozen and it was perfect for my daugther, but I like mine a bit more crispy So I put them in for another 6 minutes and they were perfect for my liking.

TEST #2: RAW CHICKEN

My next attempt was raw chicken. I decided to go with big fat chicken breasts to see what the cook time would be. So I went with my famous recipe, Garlic Lemon Stuffed Chicken (it is DIVINE!) yway

Anyway, normally big chicken breast take a long time in a regular oven, up to 45 minutes. I cooked two chicken breast in a 8×10 pan and put it in the oven. My two raw chicken breasts were completely cooked through in 25 minutes! Oh the joy of this wonderful oven!

I can’t wait to try so many other things in my oven. I am most excited to take this on trips with me! Everyone is going to be sojealous of my portable oven. I can bake cookies in a hotel room, or even roast a turkey! Thepossibilities are endless with this oven.
