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 filets mignon or sirloin, pat dry. 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

    Start the Mashed Potatoes

    Cut potatoes into large evenly-sized chunks.

    Bring a medium pot with potato chunks covered by water to a boil.

    Once boiling, cook until fork-tender, 14-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Reserve 1/2 cup potato cooking water. Drain potatoes in a colander and return to pot.

    While potatoes cook, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Green Onions

    Trim and thinly slice green onions.

  3. 3

    Roast the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry. Top with 1 tsp. olive oil and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Combine panko, Buffalo sauce (to taste; reserve 1 tsp. for crema), and cheese in a mixing bowl. Place chicken on prepared baking sheet. Top chicken with panko mixture (use less if spice-averse), pressing gently to adhere.

    Roast in hot oven until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 15-20 minutes.

    While chicken roasts, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Finish the Mashed Potatoes

    Add 2/3 the sour cream (reserve remaining for crema), butter, buttermilk-dil seasoning, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 2 Tbsp. reserved potato cooking water to pot with potatoes.

    Mash until combined and smooth. If too thick, add additional reserved potato cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

  5. 5

    Make Crema and Finish Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine remaining sour cream, remaining Buffalo sauce (to taste), and 1 tsp. water. Set aside.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping chicken with crema (to taste) and garnishing mashed potatoes with green onions. Bon appétit!
