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 antibiotic free chicken, follow same instructions.

  • If using filets mignon, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Cook Pasta and Prepare Ingredients

    Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 12-14 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander/strainer and set aside.

    While pasta cooks, cut broccoli into 1" pieces.

    Halve lemon.

    Mince chives.

    Pat chicken dry and season both sides with garlic pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

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

    Add chicken to hot pan. Cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.

    Transfer chicken to a plate and tent with foil. Wipe pan clean and keep over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Broccoli

    Add 1 tsp. olive oil, broccoli, and 2 Tbsp. water to hot pan. Cover and stir often until water is almost completely evaporated, 4-6 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Pasta and Finish Dish

    Uncover; add 2 tsp. olive oil and flour to hot pan. Stir often until no dry flour remains.

    Add 1/4 cup reserved pasta cooking water, chicken base, and cream base. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, add pasta and half the cheese (reserve remaining for garnish). Stir often until pasta is heated through and sauce is slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.

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

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping pasta with chicken. Slice chicken, if desired. Garnish with chives and remaining cheese. Squeeze lemon halves over to taste. Bon appétit!
