Share the Recipes That Wow You and Your Guests!

The Sundried Tomato Sausage Risotto is ALWAYS a BIG WOW as no one believes me you can make risotto in the microwave...in 30 minutes!

Also, my old standby is still the three cheese garden pizza! Everyone ADORES it, always a crowd pleaser- everyone thinks it's delicious and I love that it's so versatile (DH and I literally have it almost every week at home!)

For those of you that make the Grilled Chicken Penne al Fresco - what do you make with it?? I have a show this week and this was requested - I make it at home but I've never done it at a show before.

I make this, then wipe out the DCB and make the 12-minute Molten Chocolate Lava Cake. Everyone thinks the cake will taste like garlic and basil... until they taste it! They love to see one pan used for a main dish and dessert. Has really helped my DCB sales. I have also served the garlic-parmesan biscuit bites alongside or I cut up a baguette and serve it with the dipping oils. My last host wanted to serve a salad alongside, so while the pasta cooked, everyone came up and tried the knives, the Ultimate Mandoline and the kernel cutter so we could add those items to the salad.
Hope this helps!

THANKS shorelinecef! Great tips - I'll either make the bread with the dipping oil or the cake idea. THANKS!! This is my second show and the girl is moving so her house is all packed and as a thank you for hosting one of my first shows and helping me I wanted to bring a second recipe. Both of these are perfect and inexpensive. I've never made the dipping oil but I have the sun dried tomato one (never used) and the bamboo cracker tray and bowls.

It's also in All The Best Cookbook - as a variation of the Bistro Twist.

I figured it was in one of them, but wasn't sure which one and I didn't have to type it up this way, but good to know...

 

[pampchef.angel]

question:

30 minute chicken - how do you serve it to where it's not making a mess?

my question as well...

 

[pjpamchef]

I always skin my chicken before the guests get there, so when it comes out of the microwave after I show it and get the ooohs and aaahs, I say "OK guys, I skinned it, and cooked it, and since my husband isn't here to carve it, you're on your own'!! I then stick in the hold n slice and the forged utility knife and let them at it. (Left in the DCB). Gives them the opportunity to use the knives!

 

[chefsteph07]

my question as well...

Make a mess how?

When I make it, I take the chef's tongs and insert it in the cavity to lift it (or you can use meat lifters, but I dont have those) and then I just put it on the Dots platter. I dont carve either, but I do cut it and let everyone see that it's cooked and then everyone else can pick at it.

The juice goes down the drain or in a cup or something.

 

[DessertDivaFL]

I think the Rush Hour Chicken Fajitas is going to be my new favorite demo. I sold 4 DCB and the show total was over $1,200. I also did the Lava Cake in the RCP. They were all amazed.

 

[KayPT]

So do you think the pineapple upside down cake would work in the DCB? I don't have the stoneware fluted pan. I may have to get it however, I love the sound of that recipe.

 

[SueAdx]

Give it a try! It wont be as pretty but I bet it would be yummy.

 

[rockyrhode]

Garlic Parm biscuits..mmmm remember the crocks that PC used to sell...That was a few years back...Used to also make monkey bread in them...

 

[PCAnna]

I very much like cooking in the DCB but I always supplement it now with other pieces because its not available for sale to everyone I hope it comes back for everyone soon. I do love making the zesty ravioli skillet in the family skillet and lava cake in the DCB

 

[tmorgester]

can someone please tell me where I can find the 30 Minute Chicken Recipe??

For those of you that make the Grilled Chicken Penne al Fresco - what do you make with it?? I have a show this week and this was requested - I make it at home but I've never done it at a show before.

This recipe is a big winner, and I found a way to weaponize it. I make a smoked turkey every so often and my lovely wife uses the remainders to make an incredible smoked turkey broth. We usually use it as a base for soups, etc. Well, we tried the broth with this recipe and it was unbelievable! Needless to say I am going to work this into a show...

 

[rinakay]

The Deluxe Cheeseburger Salad is AMAZING!
Every time I do it at a show people are just amazed. It is the only salad my 6 year old son will eat. Hubby puts 1,000 Island dressing on it and swears it tastes just like a big mac.
Another crowd pleaser is Cool Veggie Pizza. I prebake the crescent roll dough and just put the toppings on it during the demo.

 

[Dina Atnip]

MOCHA SKILLET CAKE where is that recipe looked in the recipe files and did find it don't think I have heard of this one sounds like a wonderful recipe to try at shows. TIA

 

[Lindy]

I have all the Oil Dipping Seasonings and Both the Garlic Infused Basil Blend Oils. I just don't know what to make with them. I have a show tomorrow and I need a few recipes for dipping oils and snack dips for veggies? Help?

 

[KayPT]

I have someone who buys that basil oil every month. She says it is her secret ingredient. She uses it when she cooks and adds it to noodles, rice, etc.

 

[ChipLines]

I am looking for recipes for the Wok -- anyone have a recipe book or recipes to share please?

 

[Barry Carlton]

Mine is salad 'bowls' made with Parmesan using the 8 inch nonstick, one of the utensils, and the 1 cup prep bowl . Take only about 4 minutes to make 3 bowls. They look so lacy and smell and taste so good!!!

Just exactly how do you do these and do you actually use them for salad - they sound good

 

[ngrawer]

When the DCB went on stop sell I started making the Chicken Piccata Pasta in my Stir Fry Skillet. It goes over very well and I've sold many Stir Fry Skillets.

 

[NewbyPChef]

Mine is the mini BBQ sandwiches in the DCB. I serve them on the sr. schubert yeast rolls that come in the bag, let everyone cut their own in half with the bread knife and use sweet baby ray's bbq sauce...the best! Everyone wants the baker after they try them. If they can't afford the baker then they host a show!

If you made the BBQ sauce recipe we have with the sandwiches in our cookware, they'll love that too and maybe you'll sell the cookware!! I've had people swear they'd eat nothing other then sweet baby ray's or dinosaur bbq sauce and then try our recipe and come back for 2nds and 3rds.
