To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:
- Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

- Chicken 165° F |

Customize It Instructions
-
If using chicken breasts, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.
-
If using sirloin steaks or NY strip steak, 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 Cook the Rice
Bring a medium pot with rice and 11/4 cups water to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.Remove from burner. Stir in white portions of green onions (prepared in a later step), a pinch of pepper, and soy sauce until thoroughly combined. Cover and set aside.While rice cooks, continue recipe. -
2 Prepare Green Onions and Make Sauce

In a mixing bowl, combine orange ginger sesame sauce and a pinch of pepper. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave covered until heated through, 45-60 seconds.Carefully remove from microwave and set aside. -
3 Cook the Pork
Pat pork dry and season all over with Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (use less if spice-averse). If you receive a whole pork tenderloin, pat dry and, on a separate cutting board, slice into medallions, 3/4"-thick.

Add pork to hot pan and cook until pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-5 minutes per side.Medallion thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner medallion, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.
