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 chicken breasts, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side.

  • If using sirloin steak or NY strip steak, 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

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim green beans, if necessary.

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

    Pat mahi-mahi dry. Halve any larger pieces to match smaller pieces. Season all over with Cajun seasoning (use less if spice-averse).

  2. 2

    Cook the Mahi-Mahi

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

    Add mahi-mahi to hot pan. Cook until mahi-mahi reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.

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

    Remove from burner. Transfer mahi-mahi to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    While mahi-mahi cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add green beans and diced peppers to hot pan. Stir occasionally, 1 minute.

    Add 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Cover and cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.

    If green beans need more time, add 2 Tbsp. water, cover, and stir occasionally, 1-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in butter until melted and combined.

  4. 4

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook mahi-mahi to medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add minced garlic and chili pepper (to taste) and white portions of green onions to hot pan. Stir occasionally until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

    Stir in chicken base, cream cheese, 1/4 cup water, and blackening seasoning until combined. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir often until thickened, 2-3 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 mahi-mahi with sauce and green portions of green onions. Bon appétit!
