Just remove husks and silk from the ears and put them in the DCB (up to 6 or so will fit easily). Add 1/4 cup water, cover, and microwave on high. Usually takes about 8-9 minutes on my microwave, depending on how many ears.

I don't really use a recipe. Here is the ingredient list I give my hosts:
CHICKEN FAJITAS WITH HOME MADE SALSA
Boneless skinless chicken breasts, thawed (1 breast for every 4 - 5 people attending)
2 green pepper
2 onion
5 roma tomatoes
2 limes
fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno pepper (or more if you like it spicy!!)
2 cloves of garlic
flour tortillas (enough that each person can have at least 1)
block of cheddar cheese
sour cream (optional)
I get guests involved wedging the onions, reserving 2 or 3 wedges for the salsa. Cut the peppers, reserving about half of a pepper for the salsa. Spread the peppers and onion in the bottom of the DCB, sprinkle some chipotle rub on that. Lay 3 chicken breasts on top, sprinkle more Chipotle and grind a little salt on top. Cover, microwave for 12 minutes (or more or less depending on microwave power)
While that's cooking, I wash my hands. Continue guest involvement by wedging tomatoes. Prior to the show I get the cilantro ready and if I don't have my corer I'll get the jalapeno ready too. Then I have the guest put the wedges from two tomatoes, one onion wedge, some green peppers, some cilantro and about 1/3 of the jalapeno in the MFP and they process it. Dump that in a bowl and repeat until salsa is made. Then, squeeze lime juice and add salt and Southwestern seasoning. Voila! By the time the salsa is done, the chicken usually is too (although I always check with my Pocket thermometer).
This is about a 20 minute demo and guests LOVE it!!

A couple of questions...do you cut the chicken breast into strips before you put it in the DCB to cook, or do you use the salad choppers and cut it after it comes out of the microwave? I'm thinking we might have to do this recipe at our cluster meeting on Saturday to give people another idea for summer recipes.
The DCB, or Deep Covered Baker, is a versatile stoneware baking dish that can be used in the oven, microwave, or even on the grill. It is designed to distribute heat evenly for perfectly cooked dishes every time. The lid of the DCB creates a sealed environment, trapping moisture and flavors for delicious and tender meals.
Yes, the DCB is perfect for both sweet and savory recipes. It can be used to make everything from casseroles and roasts to cakes and desserts. Its versatility makes it a must-have in any kitchen, especially during the summer when you want to avoid turning on the oven.
There are endless possibilities for easy summer recipes with the DCB. Some popular options include grilled vegetables, BBQ pulled pork, baked mac and cheese, and even fruit cobblers. You can find plenty of delicious and refreshing recipes on our website or by attending a Pampered Chef cooking demonstration.
Yes, the DCB is dishwasher safe for easy and convenient cleanup. However, it is recommended to hand wash the lid to prevent any potential damage from dishwasher detergents.
Yes, the DCB is safe to use in the freezer. It is perfect for preparing frozen meals ahead of time and then baking them straight from the freezer for a quick and easy dinner. Just be sure to allow the dish to come to room temperature before placing it in a hot oven to avoid any potential cracking.
