HexClad 7 Qt Hybrid Nonstick Sauté Pan – 12" Deep Chicken Fryer, Tri-Ply + TerraBond Ceramic

This HexClad 7 Qt Sauté Pan blends commercial-grade durability with home-kitchen convenience. Its hybrid surface fuses stainless steel with a TerraBond ceramic nonstick layer, giving you strong sear performance plus easier food release and washing. The pan’s 12-inch diameter and 3.5-inch depth hold large quantities—ideal for whole roasted poultry, big batches of fried chicken, braising, or one-pan family meals.

How does the hybrid nonstick surface improve cooking results?

The laser-etched hexagonal pattern integrates stainless-steel peaks with a ceramic nonstick valley to let you sear at high temperatures while enjoying stick-resistant performance. That structure gives more direct contact for browning, while the TerraBond coating reduces sticking and simplifies cleanup.

• Hex-patterned stainless peaks allow superior Maillard browning.
• TerraBond ceramic coating minimizes food adhesion and oil use.
• Safe for metal utensils—no special spatulas required.
• Dishwasher-friendly for quicker post-cook cleanup.

Will this pan work on my stovetop or in the oven?

Yes—HexClad’s tri-ply construction with an aluminum core provides fast, even heating on all cooktops, including induction. The pan itself is oven-safe up to 900°F, and the included tempered glass lid is rated to 400°F, so you can finish dishes in the oven or braise at controlled heat.

• Compatible with gas, electric, ceramic, and induction cooktops.
• Pan oven-safe to 900°F; tempered glass lid oven-safe to 400°F.
• Tri-ply design prevents hot spots for consistent results.

How much food can this 7-quart pan handle and what meals suit it?

The 7-quart capacity and wide 12-inch cooking surface are sized for whole chickens, large batches of fried chicken, big sautés, or family-sized braises. Its depth and surface area make it a go-to for multi-step recipes that require searing then braising or finishing in the oven.
