This is the inaugural recipe for this pan. It's part of the new set Joann and Dad gave me for Christmas/Channukah. I followed the heating directions, and it did cook just as it said it would. Nice to have some reliable pots and pans, finally. It's a Caphalon stainless steel. The dish is a butter-free version of shrimp scampi, minus the salt and hot pepper. I will add them next time, for sure. Also, I added the sugar snap peas at the last minute.
