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 scallops, pat dry. Cook until scallops reach minimum internal temperature, 1-2 minutes per side. Scallops will vary in amount as they are portioned by weight. Don't worry, the sweet flavor and tender texture will be the same.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim woody ends off asparagus. Cut into 1/4" pieces.

    Pat mahi-mahi dry. Halve any larger pieces to match smaller pieces. Season all over with garlic salt and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Risotto

    Place a medium pot over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add asparagus and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot pot. Stir occasionally until bright green, 2-3 minutes.

    Add rice, mirepoix base, and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until combined and heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Add minced garlic and lemon basil, butter, and half the cheese (reserve remaining for garnish). Stir until melted and combined.

    While risotto cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Mahi-Mahi

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add mahi-mahi to hot pan. Cook until mahi-mahi reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.

    Fish thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner fillet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

    Remove from burner.

    While mahi-mahi cooks, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Make Citrus Sauce and Finish Dish

    In a mixing bowl, combine marmalade, mustard, and 1 tsp. water.
