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 antibiotic free chicken, pat dry. Add chicken to a medium non-stick pan with 2 tsp. olive oil over medium heat. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using sirloin steaks, pat dry. Add steaks to a medium non-stick pan with 2 tsp. olive oil over medium heat. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Cook Potatoes and Prepare Ingredients

    Slice potatoes into thin rounds.

    Once water is boiling, add potatoes to hot pot. Cook until slightly softened, 5-7 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Drain potatoes in a colander/strainer and set aside.

    While potatoes cook, cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.

    Peel and mince shallot.

    Mince garlic.

    Pat chicken dry. Season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Bake the Potatoes

    Place potatoes in prepared casserole dish.

    Add cream base, shallots, half the garlic (reserve remaining for cream cheese), 1/2 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Stir to combine and spread into an even layer. Evenly top with panko, then shredded cheese.

    Place casserole dish on prepared baking sheet with foil.

    Bake uncovered in hot oven until potatoes are fork-tender and cheese is golden-brown, 15-20 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven. Rest, 5 minutes.

    While potatoes bake, continue recipe.

    Roast the Chicken

    Roast in hot oven until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 13-18 minutes.

    Cutlet thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner cutlet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

    Carefully remove from oven and evenly top with grated cheese. Sheet will be hot! Use caution.

    Roast again in hot oven until cheese is melted and golden-brown, 2-3 minutes.
