Recipe of Classic Chicken and Dumplings
Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 2 tbsps vegetable oil 1 onion, finely chopped 2 carrots, diced 2 celery stalks, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 6 cups chicken broth 2 bay leaves 1 cup frozen peas 1 cup whole milk 2 tbsps all-purpose flour salt and pepper to taste For The Dumplings: 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tbsp baking powder ½ tsp salt ½ tsp dried thyme ½ cup whole milk 2 tbsps melted butter Instructions: In your SENSARTE Nonstick Deep Frying Pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and cook them until they are browned on both sides. This should take about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set it aside. In the same pan, add the onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté them for about 5 minutes, or until they start to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Return the chicken to the pan and add the chicken broth and bay leaves. Bring this mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. While the chicken is simmering, prepare the dumplings. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and dried thyme. Add the milk and melted butter, and stir until a thick dough forms. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering chicken mixture. Cover the pan and let it cook for 10 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through. Remove the bay leaves and discard them. Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until they are heated through. In a separate SENSARTE Nonstick Sauce Pan, combine the whole milk and flour to make a roux. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes. Pour the roux into the chicken and dumplings mixture. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve and enjoy!

Ingredients: For The Pizza Dough: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast ½ tsp sugar ½ cup warm water 2 tbsp olive oil ½ tsp salt For The Pizza Toppings: ½ cup pizza sauce 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese ½ cup cooked and crumbled sausage ¼ cup sliced bell peppers ¼ cup sliced red onion ¼ cup sliced black olives ¼ cup sliced mushrooms fresh basil leaves for garnish red pepper flakes (optional, for some heat) Instructions: For The Pizza Dough: In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast.

For Assembling The Pizza: Preheat your oven to 475°F. Make sure to remove the handle of your SENSARTE Nonstick Crepe Pan before placing the pan in the oven. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Heat your SENSARTE Nonstick Crepe Pan over medium-high heat. Place the rolled-out pizza dough into the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is slightly crisp. Carefully flip the dough over using a spatula. Quickly spread pizza sauce evenly over the surface of the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Add the cooked and crumbled sausage, bell peppers, red onion, black olives, and mushrooms as desired. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat. Carefully transfer the SENSARTE Nonstick Crepe Pan with the pizza into your preheated oven. Bake for about 10-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned. Remove the pizza from the oven (remember, the pan will be hot!) and slide the pizza onto a cutting board. Sprinkle with fresh basil leaves for a burst of flavor. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
