Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  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

    Make the Risotto

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove rice from packaging. Place a medium pot over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add tomatoes and white portions of green onions to hot pot. Stir occasionally until tomatoes release juices and soften, 2-3 minutes.

    Add cream base, mirepoix base, 1/2 cup water, and rice. Stir often until broth has slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in cheese, pesto, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper.

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

    While risotto cooks, continue recipe.

    Cook the Shrimp

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add shrimp to hot pan and cook until pink and shrimp reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Add minced garlic and parsley, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Stir often until combined and fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
