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

  • If using diced chicken thighs, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Peel, trim, and cut carrot into 1/4" slices on an angle. If carrot is larger than 1" in diameter, halve before slicing.

    Remove stem, seeds, and ribs, and cut bell pepper into 1/4" dice.

    Pat chicken dry and season all over with adobo seasoning and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables and Chicken

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add carrots, bell peppers, and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pan. Stir often until slightly browned, 2-3 minutes.

    Add 1 tsp. olive oil and chicken. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Sauce

    Add tomatoes, sofrito sauce, and 1/3 cup water to hot pan. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir often until sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

    If too thick, add additional water, 1 tsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Remove from burner.

    While sauce cooks, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Heat Rice and Finish Dish

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps and remove from packaging.

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine rice and a pinch of salt.

    Microwave uncovered until heated through, 2-3 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Rest, 2 minutes.

    Fluff rice with a fork.

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