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) |

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve tomatoes.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Thinly slice garlic.

  2. 2

    Start the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned on one side, 3-5 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to a plate. Chicken will finish cooking in a later step.

    Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    Return pan used to cook chicken to medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add garlic and white portions of green onions to hot pan and cook until tender and translucent, 3-5 minutes.

    Add tomatoes and stir occasionally until soft, 2-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Orzo and Finish Chicken

    Add orzo, chicken base, garlic salt, and 3 cups water to hot pan. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, cook until orzo is al dente and most of the liquid is absorbed, 8-10 minutes.

    Transfer chicken to top of orzo, seared-side up.

    Reduce heat to low and cover. Cook until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 6-8 minutes.

    Cutlet thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner cutlet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

    Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Transfer chicken to a plate. Stir butter and cheese into orzo.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping orzo with chicken. Garnish chicken with tzatziki and green portions of green onions. Bon appétit!
