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 16 oz. shrimp, follow same instructions as 8 oz. shrimp, cooking until shrimp reaches minimum internal temperature.

  • If using chicken breasts, pat dry and cut into 1" dice. Follow same instructions as shrimp in Steps 2 and 3, baking until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 18-22 minutes.

  • If using mahi-mahi, pat dry and halve. Follow same instructions as shrimp in Steps 2 and 3, baking until mahi-mahi reaches desired doneness (medium-rare to well-done), 18-22 minutes. Consuming raw or undercooked mahi-mahi may increase your risk for food-borne illness.
