My favorite 12" Skillet recipe is the Chicken & Asparagus Risotto (main dishes cookbook I believe but I'll attach here. Wonder how it would work making it in the stainless skillet... bet the browning of the chicken breasts would be amazing! But I love this recipe because it's all done on my burner and I don't have to runa anything to the oven. Enjoy!
