Product Description
One of the largest skillets around, this oval beauty measures 15-3/4 inches along its widest dimension, making it ideal for frying or poaching a whole fish. Moreover, the skillet can go right into the oven for further baking or for keeping your filet warm, with a rim high enough to contain up to three quarts of liquid. Each Le Creuset skillet is individually sand-cast of rugged cast iron, which heats evenly and retains heat superbly, and is then clad in two coats of hard, colorful enamel that resists scratching or chipping. The interior of the pan is matte black. Lifting the heavy pan is made easier with the helper handle opposite the long loop handle, which allows you to hang the pan from a rack.
- Oval fish skillet made of enameled cast iron for even heating
- Chip- and crack-resistant enamel won't react to foods
- Strong iron handle and opposite helper handle for a steady grip
- Hand washing recommended; oven- and broiler-safe at any oven temperature
- Measures approximately 15-4/5 by 18-1/2 by 1-4/5 inches; limited lifetime warranty

| 21 of 21 people found the following review helpful  Be sure you have the right cook top for this skillet., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 15-3/4-Inch Oval Fish Skillet (Kitchen) Creuset makes the best enameled cast iron cookware on the planet and this oval fish skillet is no exception. It's dimensions however, while being great for cooking a whole fish, require the use of 2 burners (medium size) adjacent to each other. I have a Viking cook top and the largest burner is not capable of heating the pan out to the far edges of the oval, in spite of Creuset's legendary ability to distribute heat evenly. If you don't have 2 adjacent medium sized burners on your cook top, this pan is not the right choice for you. The photos suggest a shape that is circular and just slightly out of round, but this is a very serious oval. Make a template using the published dimensions to be sure this is the right pan for you before ordering. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful  I love this skillet!, By Mary Ann "Cookaholic" (Solana Beach, California USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 15-3/4-Inch Oval Fish Skillet, Flame (Kitchen) This is a hybrid pan-a cross between a griddle and a skillet. It fits perfectly on my stovetop bridge burner and has the added bonus of having 1 1/2" sides so deglazing works perfectly. I just use it as an extra large skillet and only have to use low to medium heat. All Le Creuset looks beautiful on the table so serving in this pan looks great. Cleaning is a breeze--just let it cool, soak for a short periiod of time and everything wipes off easily! When recipes work better with heavier cookware, Le Creuset is my choice--I have many pieces (different colors!) and really enjoy using all of them. (All-Clad is my choice for other duties...) If heavy pans are not an issue for you, try Le Creuset! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful First Le Creuset, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 15-3/4-Inch Oval Fish Skillet, Flame (Kitchen) This is a good pan, but the non-stick is not as non-stick as a well-seasoned lodge cast iron pan. I love the larger size, wish my stove's expandable burner worked a bit more evenly. Although it is a heavy pan, I have a large variation in heat when using on my uneven stove burner, pancakes will burn on one side and be raw on the other. Like that the enamel bottom does not scratch my glass-top stove. |
