A note about serious food allergies

Did you know that walnut shells were once used to clean aviation equipment, and walnut husks were once used as hair dye? Well, you do now! This meal doesn't involve planes or pigments, but the rich walnut flavor combined with butter and sweet honey does this tender chicken breast right and your dinner even more so. Walnuts: versatile, useful, and oh so tasty.

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 pork chops, follow same instructions as chicken in Steps 1 and 4, cooking until pork reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side. Rest, 3 minutes.

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

  • If using sirloin steak, follow same instructions as chicken in Steps 1 and 4, cooking until steaks reach desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes.

  • Protein thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner cut, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.
