Before You Cook

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. 

  • If using 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 trout, pat dry. Add trout, skin-side up first, and cook until fish reaches minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice, 1 1/4 cups water, and a pinch of salt to a boil.

    Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner and set aside.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Sriracha Mayonnaise

    Stem mushrooms and cut caps into 1/4” slices.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine Sriracha (to taste) and mayonnaise. Set aside.

    Pat mahi-mahi dry. Halve any larger pieces to match smaller pieces. Season all over with Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (use less if spice-averse), a pinch of salt, and sesame seeds. Press gently to adhere sesame seeds.

  3. 3

    Pickle the Carrots

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine vinegar, 2 Tbsp. water, a pinch of salt, carrots, and white portions of green onions.

    Microwave uncovered until heated through, 1-2 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

    Carefully remove from microwave and rest, at least 5 minutes.

    After 5 minutes, or once cool enough to handle, drain any excess liquid and set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook the Mushrooms

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

    Add mushrooms and garlic pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until browned, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner and transfer to a heat-safe mixing bowl. Stir in soy sauce until combined. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  5. 5

    Cook Mahi-Mahi and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook mushrooms to medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add mahi-mahi to hot pan. Cook until mahi-mahi reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.

    Fish thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner fillet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner. Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, or top rice with mahi-mahi, mushrooms, and carrots. Garnish with Sriracha mayonnaise (to taste) and green portions of green onions. Bon appétit!
