Class Description
A popular class awaits! Dust off those expensive stainless-steel pans that have been hiding in the back of your cupboard, because this comprehensive, technique-driven class will transform how you cook chicken and pork in a pan. Having food stick is a major frustration for many when using this cooking method. Aside from learning chef techniques for proper pan-frying, you’ll also learn how to test for doneness so there’s no more guessing when proteins are ‘done.’ You’ll create juicy-on-the-inside, golden-on-the-outside results and be introduced to pan sauces - your new best flavor friend - while learning how to build and balance flavors so your dishes taste intentional, not accidental, with a framework you'll use far beyond this class. Once you get the hang of these cooking techniques, you’ll be able to craft quick, creative, restaurant-quality mains any night of the week.
