Can I put this frying pan in the oven?

sunnydays99 · September 2013

I'm making a skillet lasagna tomorrow and the pan I have that is big enough says its oven safe up to 350 degrees. The recipe calls for the pan to go under the broiler for 5 minutes. I'm not sure how hot the oven gets with the broiler on?? Think it'll be okay? The pan has a plastic handle, that's really the only reason I'm a bit worried.

I think the broiler is 500+. Can you just skip the broiling part?

They just want you to melt the cheese, I would just not use the broiler. It won't get as done/browned probably.

Dammit! I don't know why I thought maybe it didn't get that hot. I guess I didn't think it all the way through! Lol

The only point is to melt/brown the cheese so I guess I'll take Kate's advice and just do it at a safe oven temp.

Thanks!
