Broil or saute (4)
I believe the answer is:
cook
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'broil' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'saute' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
(Other definitions for cook that I've seen before include "Prepare a hot meal" , "Brown?" , "Capt. James --, explorer" , "work in the galley?" , "[PILGRIM in the CANTERBURY TALES]" .)
