Weeknight dinners have never been easier with Kitchenaid nitro carbon steel, the ultimate kitchen workhorse. This do-it-all cookware offers the exceptional searing and timeless performance of cast iron, but with roughly 50 percent lighter weight and anti-rust convenience, making it the perfect go-to pan to elevate weeknight meals. Made with innovative nitro heat technology to seal the surface of the pan and lock out moisture, this durable 12-inch skillet with helper handle is rust resistant and 22 percent harder than traditional carbon steel as well as completely metal-utensil safe. Similar to cast iron, carbon steel can also be seasoned to develop a nonstick-like cooking surface over time. Heat safe to 750°F and induction suitable, this pan offers culinary perfection from stove to oven to grill.
