Recipe Steps

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 half-covered in hot oven until pork reaches minimum internal temperature, 23-27 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes.

  1. 1

    Bake the Green Beans

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

    Mix green beans, 2 tsp. olive oil, seasoning blend, and a pinch of salt and pepper in provided tray until beans are coated. Spread into a single layer. Cover with foil.

    Bake covered in hot oven, 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the Chicken

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

    Pat chicken dry. Add chicken to empty side of tray. Top evenly with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper, then cheese spread.

  3. 3

    Bake the Meal

    Cover green bean half of tray with foil, leaving chicken half uncovered. Bake again half-covered in hot oven until green beans are tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 25-30 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven. Remove chicken to a plate and rest, 3 minutes.

    After 3 minutes, top chicken with bacon and crispy jalapeños (to taste). Bon appétit!
