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 diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using diced chicken thighs, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes.

  1. 1

    Roast the Fries

    Cut potatoes into 1/4" fries and pat dry.

    Place fries on prepared baking sheet. Toss with 2 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread into a single layer.

    Roast in hot oven until slightly browned, 25-30 minutes, tossing fries halfway through.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    While fries roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

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

    Core tomato and cut into six wedges.

    Stem and coarsely chop cilantro.

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

    Pat steak strips dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

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

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

    Transfer vegetables to a plate. Keep pan over medium-high heat; no need to wipe clean.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak Strips

    Add steak strips and garlic salt to hot pan.

    Stir occasionally until no pink remains and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Vegetables and Sauce and Finish Dish

    Add vegetables, soy sauce, and vinegar to hot pan. Stir occasionally until steak strips are coated, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner and stir in softened butter until combined. Rest, 3 minutes.
