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 salmon, pat dry and season flesh side with a pinch of salt and pepper. Follow same instructions as chicken in Step 1 and 3, cooking flesh side first until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Start the Chicken

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

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan and cook on one side until browned, 5-7 minutes.

    Chicken will finish cooking in a later step.

    While first side of chicken cooks, start broccoli.

  2. 2

    Cook the Broccoli

    Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces, if necessary.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add broccoli and 1 Tbsp. water to hot pan. Cover, and cook until water is almost completely evaporated, 5-6 minutes.

    Uncover, and stir occasionally until tender, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner and stir in a pinch of pepper and 1/4 tsp. salt, to taste.

  3. 3

    Finish Chicken and Make Cream

    Flip chicken, and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees.

    Remove chicken from pan. Keep pan over medium heat. Add cream, red pepper pesto, and a pinch of salt, if desired. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, cook until sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Add chicken to pan and flip to coat.
