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 filets mignon or sirloin steaks, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

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

    Cook the Pork

    Pat pork medallions dry. Season all over with half the garlic salt (reserve remaining for couscous) and a pinch of pepper.

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

    Add pork to hot pan. Cook until pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-5 minutes per side.

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