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
  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Drain potatoes and pat dry.

    Pat chicken dry. Add chicken to one provided tray and season both sides with poultry seasoning, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 2 tsp. olive oil. Massage oil and seasonings into chicken.

    In second provided tray, combine potatoes, 1 tsp. olive oil, sun-dried tomato pesto, half the garlic pepper (reserve remaining for crema), and 1/4 tsp. salt. Spread into an even layer.

  2. 2

    Start Chicken and Bake Potatoes

    Bake both trays uncovered in hot oven, 15 minutes.

    Carefully remove both trays from oven.

    Evenly top chicken with basil pesto, then mozzarella. Tray will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Cover potatoes with foil to keep warm. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Finish Chicken and Make Crema

    Bake chicken again uncovered in hot oven until mozzarella is melted and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

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

    While chicken bakes, in a mixing bowl, combine creme fraiche, a pinch of salt, remaining garlic pepper, and 1 Tbsp. water. Set aside.

    Carefully remove chicken from oven.

    To serve, garnish potatoes with Parmesan and crema. Bon appétit!
