Hi there when using nonstick pans metal utensils shouldn't be used if the pan has only a layer of Teflon non stick as this can be easily scratched away and damaged.

If using a pan whit the teflon mixed in then you should be able to use metl utensils but be care full and take care.If in doubt just use plastic utensils.
