[ILC Spotlight](3D) January 21, 2019  [Cast Iron Cooking: One-Pan Meals With a Southwestern Flare]( There’s a reason cast iron cooking has been around for centuries! Join me, Chef Addie Gundry, and learn how to care for and cook in your cast iron skillet. From the Cooking Class: [Cast Iron Cooking]( [Subscribe now.]( Dear Basic Member, Cast iron is a perfect cooking pan. If you season it correctly, it is surprisingly non-stick. It’s inexpensive, it heats quickly and evenly, and you can cook nearly anything in it from breakfast to dinner and dessert. You can go from the stovetop to the oven, and it’s practically indestructible. A cast iron skillet is something you can have in your kitchen for years or even generations. If you’ve hesitated to use cast iron because you’ve heard rumors about it being difficult or tricky, rest assured, I’ll walk you through how to keep it in tip-top shape without a ton of work. There’s a reason these pans get passed down through families! It’s a great staple to have in your kitchen, and I’ll show you just how versatile it is in this class. Learn everything you need to know to start cooking with cast iron—all in the RecipeLion Cooking Club’s [Cast Iron Cooking]( streaming-video cooking class with me, Chef Addie Gundry! [Subscribe now.]( This Bourbon Chicken and Biscuits dish is all on the stovetop and all in your iron skillet. Start by cooking your chicken breasts in a hot skillet for about 6 or 7 minutes on one side. Flip the chicken and add mushrooms, real maple syrup, and a cup of bourbon, and let that simmer for about 10 minutes. Add cream, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme. Let the liquid thicken a bit and make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through. When it’s ready, you can serve it right from the skillet! Put your biscuits right in the pan, and you have a gorgeous presentation. You can also serve it on a plate with a biscuit on the side and mushrooms and sauce on top. Bonus tip! To make things easy, use a basic biscuit dough mix like Bisquick for simple, light, fluffy biscuits. Second bonus tip! Always use an oven mitt or towel when you cook with cast iron. Those handles can get just as hot as the skillet.  [Subscribe now.]( [Claim Your Premium Charter Membership Now!](  To start making these four delicious, rustic recipes, watch [Cast Iron Cooking](, right now—one of many classes in the RecipeLion Cooking Club’s [Library](, which is included with Premium Charter Membership!

You can sauté the chicken directly in your pan, then add in everything else and put it right into the oven. Even the penne cooks in the pan, making it deliciously easy.  - Blueberry Cobbler—Plenty of melted butter and fresh, juicy blueberries make this a can’t-miss dessert.

And the best part? It’s a giant pancake! You don’t have to stand at the stove making stacks of individual pancakes.  - How to Season Your Cast Iron Skillet—A lot of people worry about cooking with cast iron because it can seem like everything sticks, or they don’t feel comfortable cleaning up after cooking. But seasoning and caring for your skillet is really easy. All it takes is a little bit of vegetable oil and a dish towel or paper towels. I’ll show you everything you need to know to make sure your cast iron cookware gives you a lifetime of cooking fun.
