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 ground beef, add meatballs to hot pan and cook until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 10-12 minutes. 

  • If using ground turkey, add meatballs to hot pan and cook until turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 11-13 minutes. 

  • If using Impossible burger, add meatballs to hot pan and cook until Impossible burger reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 12-15 minutes. 

  1. 1

    Form the Meatballs

    In a mixing bowl, combine panko, a pinch of salt, and 2 Tbsp. water. Let sit, 1 minute.

    After 1 minute, add ground pork, mayonnaise, half the mushroom seasoning (reserve remaining for green beans), 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

    Form mixture into 8 equally-sized meatballs.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meatballs and Mushrooms

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add meatballs to hot pan and roll occasionally until browned all over, 4-5 minutes.

    Add mushrooms and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover and stir occasionally until mushrooms are tender and meatballs reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 3-5 minutes.

    While meatballs and mushrooms cook, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Green Beans

    Trim green beans, if necessary.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add green beans to hot pan and cook, 1 minute.

    Add 1/4 cup water, remaining mushroom seasoning, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Cover and cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.

    If green beans need more time, add 2 Tbsp. water and stir occasionally, 1-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Uncover meatballs. Add cream cheese and 1 tsp. water. Stir often until melted and combined, 1-2 minutes.

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

    Remove from burner.
