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) |

  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F
  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Core tomatoes and cut into 1/2" dice.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

  2. 2

    Crisp the Proscuitto

    Remove prosciutto from refrigerator. Line a plate with a paper towel.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1/2 tsp. olive oil. Working in batches, add prosciutto to hot pan in a single layer. Stir occasionally until crispy, 1-2 minutes per side.

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

    Once cool enough to handle, break into bite-sized pieces. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  3. 3

    Start the Risotto

    Return pan used to crisp prosciutto to medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add white portions of green onions and rice to hot pan. Stir occasionally until rice is toasted and opaque, 1-2 minutes.

    Add tomatoes and stir occasionally, 1 minute.

    Add 1 cup boiling water from medium pot, chicken base, and garlic salt. Rice should just be covered by water. Stir often until nearly all water is absorbed, 5-8 minutes.

  4. 4

    Finish the Risotto

    Add 1/2 cup boiling water and stir often again until nearly all water is absorbed. Repeat this process, stirring often, 18-20 minutes.

    Taste risotto as you cook, checking for tenderness. When rice has no more “bite” or crunch, it's done. There may be water left. Add corn and stir until combined and heated through, 30-60 seconds.

    Remove from burner. Add cream cheese, half the Parmesan (reserve remaining for garnish), and cheddar cheese. Stir until combined and cheeses melt, 30-60 seconds.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping risotto with prosciutto, green portions of green onions, and remaining Parmesan. Bon appétit!
