Candied chicken! Sounds good.
Invest in a bottle of Dawn Power Dissolve (usually found on the same shelf as Dawn Dishwashing). Rinse out the pan and spray the cooked on stuff with the Power Dissolve. Let sit while you eat. The gunk will dissolve to a soft brown goo and be easily washed off. This is also a godsend for stuck on popcorn when someone has to make popcorn the old fashioned way and forgets to shake the pot enough. The Power Dissolve will also take off old stains from Pyrex, but will take more elbow grease and sometimes a Mr. Clean white scrubbing pad.
I will have to look for some of that Dawn Power Dissolve. Have not noticed it before and could use it when I leave rice to cook to long!
