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, working in batches, if necessary.
-
If using diced chicken breasts, follow same instructions as shrimp in Step 3, stirring occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.
-
If using diced chicken thighs, follow same instructions as above. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.
