- Chicken 165° F |
- Ground Beef 160° F |
- Ground Turkey 165° F |

Customize It Instructions
-
If using chicken breasts, follow same instructions as pork in Steps 1, 4, and 5, adding topping, searing 2-4 minutes per side, then roasting until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 8-10 minutes.
-
If using pork tenderloin medallions, follow same instructions as pork in Steps 1, 4, and 5, adding topping, searing 2-3 minutes per side, then roasting until pork reaches minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes. If you receive a whole tenderloin, pat dry, then slice into medallions, 3/4"-thick. Pork thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner tenderloin, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.
