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
  1. 1

    Make the Rice

    Mince cilantro, leaves and stems.

    Bring a small pot with rice, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil.

    Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 14-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in half the cilantro (reserve remaining for tacos) and fluff rice. Cover and set aside.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Slaw

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

    Combine slaw mix, dressing, and guacamole in a mixing bowl. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Filling

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

    Add 2 tsp. olive oil, ground beef, poblano, bacon, and 1/2 tsp. salt to hot pan. Break up meat until no pink remains and beef reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 6-8 minutes.

    Drain fat from pan, if desired. Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Warm Tortillas and Finish Dish

    Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until warm, 30-60 seconds.

    Alternatively, place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add tortillas, one at a time, to hot, dry pan. Heat undisturbed, 30-45 seconds per side. Remove from pan.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, filling tortillas with filling, slaw, cheese, and remaining cilantro (to taste). Bon appétit!
