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

  • If using 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

    Start the Chicken

    Pat chicken 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 chicken cooks, continue recipe.

  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, 4-6 minutes.

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

    Remove from burner. Stir in 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    While broccoli cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Finish Chicken and Make Sauce

    Flip chicken and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

    Transfer chicken to a plate. Keep pan over medium heat; no need to wipe clean. Add 1 Tbsp. water, cream base, pesto, and a pinch of salt to hot pan. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes.

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