A note about serious food allergies

There are two types of great cheddar. There's the type your kids and grandkids talk about from the rap songs. (Pssttt… it means “money.”) And there's the cheddar straight outta Somerset, the cheese the US Department of Agriculture calls the most popular in the world. We're giving you Mr. Popularity featured on top of a succulent chicken breast and topped with crunchy potato sticks. We're not rich enough to say that cheese is the only cheddar we want, but after a few bites of this delightful dinner, we might reconsider.

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

  • In using salmon, pat dry and season flesh side with spice rub. Follow same instructions as chicken in Step 2, searing flesh side only, 2-4 minutes. Follow same instructions for topping. In Step 3, cook butternut squash 4-6 minutes, then poblano and green onion 4-6 minutes. Follow same instructions as chicken in Step 4, roasting until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 7-10 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim and cut white portions of green onions into 1" lengths. Thinly slice green portions. Keep white and green portions separate.

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

    Gently crush potato sticks.

    Pat chicken breasts dry, and season both sides with spice rub and a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    Start the Chicken

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken breasts to hot pan and sear undisturbed until browned, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Transfer seared chicken to one half of prepared baking sheet. Chicken will finish cooking in a later step. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    In a mixing bowl, combine cheddar cheese and green portions of green onions. Top chicken with cheese-green onion mixture and potato sticks, pressing gently to adhere. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Start the Vegetables

    Return pan used to sear chicken to medium-high heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil.

    Add butternut squash to hot pan and stir occasionally until lightly browned, 3-4 minutes.

    Add poblano, white portions of green onions, and a pinch of salt. Stir occasionally until poblano softens, 3-4 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Finish the Vegetables and Chicken

    Transfer vegetables to empty half of baking sheet and spread into a single layer on their side. Sprinkle with Parmesan.

    Roast in hot oven until vegetables are tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 10-12 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, drizzling chipotle ranch on vegetables (to taste). Bon appétit!
