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 antibiotic free chicken, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using shrimp, pat dry. Cook until pink and shrimp reach minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Hold romaine heart at root end and chop coarsely.

    Core tomato and cut into 1/2" dice.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry. Season all over with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    In a mixing bowl, combine panko, garlic salt, half the cheese (reserve remaining for garnish), and chicken. Stir until chicken is evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Line a plate with a paper towel.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add canola oil. Let oil heat, 5 minutes.

    Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of panko to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.

    After 5 minutes, working in batches if necessary, carefully add chicken to hot oil and cook until golden-brown and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 1-3 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to towel-lined plate.

    While chicken cooks, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Assemble Salad and Finish Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine romaine, tomatoes, and dressing.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping salad with chicken. Garnish with remaining cheese. Bon appétit!
