    Grab a spoon and start scooping? I’m so sorry I’ve had this happen before.

    Scrape off the best you can then add a cut up potato. It will help absorbs any excess. It will be good chicken and potatoes.

  3. Is that chicken? I would scoop the pile and everything around it out, toss it in a cullender and rinse it all off. Pat dry with paper towels if needed and return it to the pan and cook on.

    Get a noodle drainer and flip that pan over into it.

    That had a good amount t of time left to cook. Rinse the middle part after scooping it out and toss it back in. Voila. Good as new

    Is that paprika? I’ll send my dad over. It’s literally the only seasoning he uses.

    My poor ass would try to spoon out seasoning so it wouldn’t go to waste.

    Alot of heat; looks like paprika. Make a cajun alfredo. The fat from the cheese and carbs from the pasta will mellow that out alot. Add more egg if necessary. Easy fix.

    Is that cinnamon? Old bay? Chili powder? Just throw it away! 😑 plate and everything lol

    I’d scoop off what I could, then close my eyes and blow on it. If there is still too much, just rinse those pieces off and throw them in the pan for a minute. That what I do when I mess up like that.

    Rinse it off and pat dry. You will basically need to re-season but I have done this many times.

    Stand above it and inhale really hard. Human vacuum.

    So what did you do?

    I am getting a whole lot here with no resolutions posted! Did it get eaten? Do we have a whole new culinary delight to enjoy?

    I was confused for a long time, as i thought you meant the lid to the pan.

    Use a vacuum cleaner to suck all the chilly powder!

    I thought you meant the lid to the pan, I was so confused.

    It’s that chillie powder? I usually say to my wife, caution, it could be a little spicier and hot.

    Reminds me of the time my MIL did this with a chicken soup she was making and black pepper. We spent the rest of the week trying to use weird methods like boiling a stick of butter and skimming the fat back off to dilute the black pepper, but what really solved it was adding tons of water and chicken bullion cubes — so kinda remaking the entire soup.
