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.

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side. 

  1. 1

    Start the Bean Salad

    Trim green beans and cut into 1" pieces.

    Drain and rinse cannellini beans in a colander/strainer.

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine green beans, 2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Microwave uncovered until green beans are bright green and fork-tender, 4-5 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Evenly top green beans with cannellini beans. Microwave again uncovered until cannellini beans are heated through, 1-2 minutes.

    While bean salad microwaves, continue recipe.

    After 1-2 minutes, carefully remove bowl from microwave. Stir in 1 tsp. lemon juice, pesto, green onions, half the garlic pepper (reserve remaining for crema), and a pinch of salt and pepper until combined. Place bowl in fridge and let chill, 10 minutes.

    While bean salad chills, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry. Season both sides with garlic and parsley seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper.
