We have used this French White Oval Dish, as a casserole dish, about twice per month for about five years, and we are very happy with it. It is just right for one of our favorite entrees (see below), it's easy to clean, it fits just right in our microwave, and there is a nice lid, available as an accessory (CorningWare French White 1-1/2-Quart Oval Glass Cover). The dish is white, with ribbed sides.
And now, as a bonus feature for this review, you get a recipe, for which this dish is just right.
This recipe came in the how-to book that accompanied our first microwave oven. We still have this meal, about twice per month, two new microwaves (20+ years later).
1. Take four to six chicken drumsticks (or comparable amount of chicken thighs or breasts), skin them, remove all noticeable fat, add salt, pepper, paprika (for taste and color), and parsley flakes, and lay it in a microwavable casserole dish. Chili powder, or other spices, could certainly be added, or substituted for the salt, pepper, and/or paprika, according to your likes and dislikes.
2. Pour lemon juice (like ReaLemon) into casserole, until chicken is just submerged.
3. Cover and microwave (Medium, or 80% on our current 1100-Watt microwave), for 25 minutes.
We usually have it with mashed or boiled potatoes, and cooked carrots, green beans, or waxed beans. The juice from the casserole dish, can be used as a sauce or gravy for the potatoes and/or vegetables, or discarded (it will contain some of the residual fat from the chicken). It's fast, it's not complicated, it doesn't heat up the house (good in Summer), it's low in fat, and it's quite tasty. The recipe can be used for turkey breast also.
