Prepare the oven (7)
I believe the answer is:
preheat
'prepare the oven' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for preheat that I've seen before include "light oven before food's ready to cook?" , "Warm beforehand" .)
I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune and the USA Today.
