Congrats! I got mine the week brfore Christmas and had grand plans for the 'virgin run' - no pun intended. I ended up throwing in the Lemon Greek Chicken recipe 'cause I was out of time to cook it in the oven. I tossed it in the micro for 15 mins and it was soo juicy I won't ever do it in the oven again!
