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.

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side. 

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim stems off Brussels sprouts and halve vertically (quarter if larger than a ping-pong ball).

    Peel pear, core, and cut into 1/4" dice.

    Peel and slice potatoes into 1" rounds.

    Pat steaks dry and season both sides with half the garlic salt (reserve remaining for Brussels sprouts) and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Potatoes

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

    Add potatoes, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Sear until golden-brown, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Add 1/4 cup water, half the chicken base (reserve remaining for sauce), and butter. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, flip potatoes until coated, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer potatoes to oven and roast in hot oven until potatoes are tender, 15-20 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven. Pan handle will be hot! Use an oven mitt.

    While potatoes roast, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Roast the Brussels Sprouts

    Place Brussels sprouts, 2 tsp. olive oil, remaining garlic salt, and a pinch of pepper on prepared baking sheet. Massage oil and seasonings into Brussels sprouts. Spread into an even layer.

    Roast in hot oven until tender, 14-16 minutes.

    While Brussels sprouts roast, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steaks

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

    Add steaks to hot pan and cook until steaks reach desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well.

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

    Transfer steaks to a plate and cover with foil. Rest, 3 minutes.

    Wipe pan clean and keep over medium heat.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Add 2 tsp. olive oil, pears, and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until pears are slightly browned and tender, 3-5 minutes.

    Add 1/4 cup water, balsamic vinegar, and remaining chicken base. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce is slightly thickened, 3-5 minutes.

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

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping steak with sauce. Garnish with cheese (to taste). Bon appétit!
