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 breasts, follow same instructions.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Coarsely chop walnuts.

    Trim stems off Brussels sprouts and halve vertically (quarter if larger than a ping-pong ball).

    Finely chop banana peppers.

    In a mixing bowl, combine banana peppers (to taste), softened cream cheese, and grated cheese. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry.

    Lay chicken on a clean cutting board. Hold knife blade parallel to the board and carefully make a lengthwise cut through the center of meat, using your free hand to steady meat. Stop short of opposite edge of chicken so chicken remains in one piece. Open meat as you would a book.

    Evenly divide cream cheese mixture (use less if spice-averse) between chicken, placing in center. Fold chicken in half over filling.

    Season both sides with half the garlic salt (reserve remaining for Brussels sprouts), Italian seasoning, and a pinch of pepper.

  3. 3

    Roast the Chicken

    Place chicken on prepared baking sheet.

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

    Carefully remove from oven.

    While chicken roasts, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Cook the Brussels Sprouts

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add Brussels sprouts, a pinch of pepper, and 1/4 cup water to hot pan. Cover and stir occasionally until water is almost completely evaporated, 3-4 minutes.

    Uncover and add remaining garlic salt and bacon. Stir occasionally until bacon is crispy, 2-3 minutes.

    Stir in walnuts and butter until combined, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While Brussels sprouts cook, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Place another medium non-stick pan over medium-low heat.

    Add pesto, creme fraiche, and 1 Tbsp. water to hot pan. Stir occasionally until combined and sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

    If too thick, add additional water, 1 tsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping chicken with sauce. Bon appétit!
