Before You Cook

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using chicken breasts, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using mahi-mahi, pat dry. Halve any larger pieces to match smaller pieces. Cook until mahi-mahi reaches minimum internal temperature, 3-4 minutes per side. Fish thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner fillet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Cook the Green Beans

    Trim green beans, if necessary.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add green beans to hot pan and stir occasionally, 1 minute.

    Add 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Uncover and stir in half the garlic salt (reserve remaining for tilapia), lemon juice, apricot preserves, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    While green beans cook, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tilapia

    Finely crush almonds in shipping bag.

    Combine crushed almonds and panko on a plate and spread into an even layer.

    Pat tilapia dry and coat both sides evenly with mayonnaise. Season all over with remaining garlic salt and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Place tilapia onto almond-panko mixture and flip until coated on both sides, pressing firmly to adhere.

  3. 3

    Cook the Tilapia

    Place another large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add tilapia to hot pan and cook until crust is golden-brown and tilapia reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner.
