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, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice, 1 1/4 cups water, and 1/4 tsp. salt to a boil.

    Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in softened butter and a pinch of salt until combined. Cover and set aside to keep warm.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Make Crema and Prepare Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine creme fraiche and 1 Tbsp. water. Set aside.

    Stem and mince parsley.

    Halve lemon lengthwise. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Mince garlic.

    Pat shrimp dry. Season all over with half the smoked paprika (reserve remaining for sauce) and 1/4 tsp. salt.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    Add walnuts, half the garlic (reserve remaining for shrimp), remaining smoked paprika, red peppers, 2 tsp. lemon juice (reserve remaining for salad), 1/4 tsp. salt, a pinch of pepper, and 2 Tbsp. olive oil into a bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth.

    Don't have a blender or food processor? Chop garlic, red peppers, and walnuts as finely as possible. Combine ingredients in a mixing bowl until smooth.

    If too thick, add additional olive oil or water, 1 tsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

  4. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

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

    Add shrimp and remaining garlic to hot pan. Cook until pink and shrimp reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner. Stir in sauce until shrimp are evenly coated.

    While shrimp cook, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Dress Arugula and Finish Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine arugula, parsley, cheese, a pinch of pepper, 1 tsp. olive oil, and 1/2 tsp. remaining lemon juice (to taste).

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping rice with shrimp and arugula. Garnish shrimp with crema. Squeeze lemon wedges over dish to taste. Bon appétit!
