You're a steak and potatoes kinda gal or guy, but you want to mix it up a bit. After all, there's only so many times you can have a juicy T-bone and loaded baked potato. (That amount is 10,424.)

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 20 oz. steak strips, follow same instructions as 10 oz. steak strips, working in batches, if necessary.

  • If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Follow same instructions as steak strips in Step 2, stirring occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using ground beef, follow same instructions as steak strips in Step 2, breaking up until no pink remains and beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Cut potatoes into 1/2" dice.

    Place potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave, 3 minutes.

    While potatoes microwave, trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Pat steak strips dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces.

  2. 2

    Start the Chowder

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

    Add steak strips, white portions of green onions, mushrooms, potatoes, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pot. Stir occasionally until no pink remains on steak strips and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Finish the Chowder

    Add flour and stir until no dry flour remains. Stir in 13/4 cups water and chicken base.

    Cover and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, stir occasionally until thickened, 3-5 minutes.

    Add 1/3 the crème fraîche (reserve remaining for crema), coarse black pepper, and 1/2 tsp. salt. Stir to combine.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Make Crema and Finish Dish

    Combine remaining crème fraîche and half the cheese (reserve remaining for garnish) in a mixing bowl.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing chowder with remaining cheese, crema, green portions of green onions, and crispy onions. Bon appétit!
