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 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.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Coarsely chop spinach.

    Peel and slice potatoes into thin rounds.

    Mince chives.

    Peel and mince shallot.

    Pat steaks dry. Season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and garlic pepper.

  2. 2

    Start the Potatoes

    Place a medium pot over medium-high heat.

    Add cream base and 1/2 cup water to hot pot. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, add potatoes, half the shallots (reserve remaining for sauce), garlic salt, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until combined and potatoes are slightly tender, 8-10 minutes.

    Remove from burner and transfer potato mixture to prepared casserole dish. Stir in spinach and half the cheese (reserve remaining for topping) until combined. Spread into a single layer. Potato mixture will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Evenly top with remaining cheese.

  3. 3

    Finish the Potatoes

    Bake uncovered in hot oven until sauce is bubbling and potatoes are fork-tender, 15-20 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    While potatoes bake, 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. 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.

    Keep pan over medium heat; no need to wipe clean.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Add 1 tsp. olive oil, remaining shallots, and a pinch of salt to hot pan. Stir occasionally until tender, 1-2 minutes.

    Add flour and stir occasionally until no dry flour remains.

    Add mushroom base and 1/4 cup water. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

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

    Remove from burner. Stir in softened butter and half the chives (reserve remaining for garnish) until combined.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping steak with sauce from pan. Garnish with remaining chives. Slice steak, if desired. Bon appétit!
