The Circulon 5.5-quart nonstick casserole is a one-pot meal maker for hearty soups, braised chicken, and slow-cooked stews. Its heavy-duty hard-anodized aluminum body heats evenly and reliably, while the TOTAL Nonstick System of raised circles and triple-layer coating ensures food slides out and cleanup stays easy.
Unlike a stockpot, the wide base of this casserole gives you more surface area for browning and then simmering. It works on all stovetops, including induction, and is oven safe to 400°F, so you can start a dish on the burner and transfer it directly to the oven.
At 5.5 quarts, this casserole fits a whole chicken, a pot roast, or a large batch of chili. It is deep enough for liquid-heavy braises but compact enough to store easily. A snug-fitting lid keeps moisture and flavor in while meals simmer.
Sear meat on the stovetop over medium heat, then add liquid, cover, and move to a 325°F oven. The nonstick surface releases fond easily, so you can turn pan drippings into a sauce without endless scrubbing.
5.5-quart capacity is ideal for family-sized soups, braises, and one-pot meals.
Hard-anodized aluminum heats evenly and resists warping over years of use.
TOTAL Nonstick System with raised circles provides reliable food release.
Compatible with all stovetops, including induction, and oven safe to 400°F.
Included lid seals in moisture for slow braising and simmering.

MPN: 5.5-Quart Nonstick Casserole
If you want a pan that can sear, braise, simmer, and serve, the 5.5-quart casserole is a valuable addition to your kitchen. It is large enough for a family meal but shaped to work like a wide sauté pan for browning ingredients before liquids go in.
Sear your seasoned meat on medium-high heat until deeply browned. Add aromatics and liquid, cover with the lid, and transfer to a 325°F oven. The tight-fitting lid traps steam, keeping the meat moist while the nonstick surface makes cleanup simple.
A traditional Dutch oven holds heat for long simmering, but it is heavy and requires more maintenance. This Circulon casserole gives you similar one-pot versatility with a lighter weight, quick heat response, and dishwasher-safe convenience. It is an excellent choice for everyday cooks who want Dutch-oven meals without the heavy cast iron.
Yes, the hard-anodized base is compatible with all stovetops, including induction.
Yes, it is oven safe to 400°F, so you can braise or finish dishes in the oven.
You can, with a few caveats: it is lighter than cast iron, heats faster, and is oven safe to 400°F—ideal for soups, braises, and one-pot meals.
Avoid preheating the empty pan on high heat. Use medium heat for most stovetop tasks; the hard-anodized aluminum conducts heat well.
Yes, but hand washing with mild detergent will help the nonstick coating last longer.
Great pot.
The pot is heavy and well-made. It heats evenly on my stove. The lid is comfortable. However, the handles are small and hard to grab with mitts. Still a solid casserole.
I use this every week for stews and braises. The nonstick makes cleanup a breeze. It goes from stove to oven easily. The size is just right for my family of four.
This pot cooks good. It's heavy with food. Don't try to pour with one hand. Nonstick works great. Good for chili.
I have an induction cooktop and this pot heats quickly and evenly. No hot spots. The nonstick surface is holding up well. I've made soups and curries. Very satisfied.
I bought this for my Sunday pot roast. It cooked beautifully, and the meat came out tender. Cleaning was simple. I appreciate the sturdy construction. I will use it often.
It's good. But the lid doesn't fit as tight as I'd like. The nonstick is good. I make rice in it.
The pot is solid. I wish it had a smaller helper handle. The nonstick works well. Cleanup is easy. I've cooked pasta and it didn't stick.
This casserole dish is exactly what I wanted. It holds heat well and cooks evenly. The nonstick surface releases food with ease. I've used it for baking and stovetop. It's a fine piece.
Boiled pasta in this. No sticking.
The pot is quite heavy. When full, it's a workout. But the nonstick is excellent and it cleans up well. I just wish it were lighter.
I use this in my catering. It performs consistently. The nonstick holds up to heavy use. It's a great size. I've bought three.
