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, follow same instructions as chicken thighs in Steps 1 and 2, stirring occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using whole chicken breasts, pat dry and cut into 1" dice. Follow same instructions as above.

  • If using 8 oz. or 16 oz. shrimp, follow same instructions as chicken thighs in Steps 1 and 2, cooking until shrimp reaches minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim ends off snow peas. Cut across length into 1/2" pieces.

    Pat chicken thighs dry and season all over with a pinch of salt and pepper. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken and Peas

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

    Add chicken and snow peas to hot pan. Stir occasionally until chicken is browned and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    Stir Alfredo sauce, 2 Tbsp. water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper into pan. Bring to a simmer.

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

    Stir in spaghetti until coated with sauce, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Toast Panko and Finish Dish

    Place a small non-stick pan over medium heat with and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add panko and bacon to hot pan. Stir occasionally until panko is toasted and golden brown, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping pasta with panko-bacon mixture and Parmesan. Bon appétit!
