A heating appliance includes a housing having interior walls with interior surfaces defining a cooking chamber for heating food, a microwave heating source configured to generate microwave radiation for heating the food, and a thermoresistive heating plate disposed in an opening defined in an interior wall. The thermoresistive heating plate has a substrate having an inner surface aligned with the interior surface of the interior wall, and a bottom surface opposite to the inner surface. The thermoresistive heating plate includes a thermoresistive coating disposed on the bottom surface configured to generate heat upon application of an electric current such that the heat is transmitted through the substrate to the cooking chamber from the thermoresistive coating, the microwave heating source, or both, and the substrate is transparent to microwave radiation to allow microwave emission through the substrate.
