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
  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

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

    Trim ends off celery and cut into 1/4" dice.

    Halve and peel onion. Cut halves into 1/4" dice.

    Remove Italian sausage from casing, if necessary.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add Italian sausage to hot pan. Break into smaller pieces until no pink remains and sausage reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    Transfer sausage to a plate. Keep pan over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice and Vegetables

    Add bell peppers, onions, celery, and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot pan. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 6-8 minutes.

    Add rice. Stir occasionally until rice is toasted and opaque, 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the Sausage and Broth

    Add sausage, tomatoes, blackening seasoning, peas, chicken base, and 1 cup boiling water from medium pot to hot pan. Rice should just be covered by water.

    Stir often until nearly all water is absorbed.

  5. 5

    Finish Jambalaya and Finish Dish

    Add 1/2 cup boiling water to hot pan and stir often again until nearly all water is absorbed. Repeat this process, stirring often, 18-20 minutes.

    Taste jambalaya as you cook, checking for tenderness. When rice has no more “bite” or crunch, it's done. There may be water left.

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card. Bon appétit!
