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.

  • If using steak strips, pat dry, coarsely chop, then separate pieces. Stir occasionally until steak reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes.

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice and 1 1/4 cups water to a boil.

    Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Cover and set aside to keep warm.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Remove any discolored outer leaves from bok choy and trim ends. Cut stems into 1/4" slices and coarsely chop leaves. Keep stems and leaves separate.

    Remove stem, seeds, and ribs, and cut bell pepper into 1/4" dice.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Pat shrimp dry and season all over with black garlic seasoning.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add sesame oil.

    Add bell peppers, white portions of green onions, bok choy stems, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 6-8 minutes.

    Add bok choy leaves and stir occasionally until wilted, 1-2 minutes.

    While vegetables cook, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

    Place another large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add shrimp to hot pan. Cook until pink and shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Add Shrimp and Sauce and Finish Dish

    In a mixing bowl, combine black pepper sauce (to taste), teriyaki sauce, cornstarch, and 1/4 cup water.

    Add shrimp and cornstarch mixture to hot pan with vegetables. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
