Before You Cook

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 2 and 3, baking uncovered in hot oven until pork reaches minimum internal temperature, 23-27 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes. Pork thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner chop, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Start the Green Beans

    Turn oven on to 425 degrees. Let preheat, at least 10 minutes. Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Set cream cheese on counter to soften.

    Combine green beans, 2 tsp. olive oil, seasoning rub, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper in provided tray. Spread into a single layer. Cover tray with foil.

    Bake covered in hot oven, 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the Chicken

    Carefully remove tray from oven. Stir garlic into green beans and push to one side of tray. Tray will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Combine panko, pesto (to taste), and cheese in a mixing bowl.

    Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread cream cheese evenly over chicken.

    Place chicken in empty side of tray and top evenly with panko-pesto mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  3. 3

    Bake the Meal

    Bake uncovered in hot oven until green beans are tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 20-25 minutes.

    Carefully remove tray from oven. Garnish chicken with sour cream. Bon appétit!
