I am going to take my dcb to make a whole chicken in, per host request, I need a recipe for something to demonstrate that would be good to have with the chicken. Any ideas would be appreciated.
 
How about a skillet cake? They would both be done about the same time, and you're showcasing 2 major product lines. The mocha one is good, and so is pineapple upside down. Never tried it, but the turtle one is supposed to be excellent. I'm sure you can search this site for these recipes and more.
 
You could do the garlic biscuit bites. That also demos the cookware. I know some people also do stuffing with the juices from the chicken, but I haven't done that yet to know how exactly its done.
 
I always do the parmesan garlic biscuit bites with the 30 minute chicken. It has been a goldmine!

I use:

10 inch skillet
Forged utility knife
cutting board
Italian seasoning (and measuring spoon if you'd like)
Microplane grater
garlic press
small mix n stir scraper
cooling rack
oven mitt
Dots dinner plate
small tongs.

It takes about 10 minutes to do the demo, plus 15-18 for baking. By that time, the chicken is done, you take it out of the micro, take out the biscuits, cover the chicken, slide out the biscuits, take 10 minutes to go over host/guest specials, etc...and then serve the food!

I have done the garlic biscuits plenty of times, love love them....never made the Parmesan ones before, if you have the recipe hand I would really appreciate it. Can I make 2 cans in the 10 inch saute pan. Can't wait for the recipe. Thanks

Hey - where are you in MI?

I use the 8 count can of grands biscuits.


1 can biscuits
1/2 stick of butter
1-2 cloves of garlic
1-2 tsp of Italian Seasoning (Rae says to try the garlic/parm seasoning!)
Parm Cheese (I just grate it into the pan - I've never measured it)

Heat oven to 350, melt butter in pan on top of stove. press garlic into pan, sprinkle in seasoning, grate in cheese. Cut biscuits into quarters. arrange in pan, and then toss it all together to coat the biscuits. Put in the oven for 15-18 minutes.
