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 diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using diced chicken thighs, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 9-11 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander/strainer and set aside.

    While pasta cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Quarter mushrooms.

    Finely chop walnuts.

    Zest and halve lemon. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Coarsely chop parsley.

    Mince chives.

    Pat steak strips dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak Strips and Mushrooms

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add mushrooms and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until browned, 4-6 minutes.

    Add steak strips, garlic salt, and a pinch of pepper. Stir occasionally until no pink remains and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the Sauce and Pasta

    Add cream base, cream cheese, mushroom base, half the reserved pasta cooking water, 1 tsp. lemon juice, and grated cheese to hot pan. Stir occasionally until combined and sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

    If sauce is too thick, add additional reserved pasta cooking water, 1 tsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Add pasta and stir often until coated and heated through, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Rest, 3 minutes.

    While sauce cooks and pasta heats, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Make Gremolata and Finish Dish

    In a mixing bowl, combine chives, parsley, walnuts, 1 tsp. lemon zest, 1 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of salt.
