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

    Cook the Noodles

    Once water is boiling, add noodles and cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Drain and rinse noodles in a colander/strainer. Set aside.

    While noodles cook, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Evenly spread panko on a plate.

    In a mixing bowl, combine tempura mix and 2 Tbsp. water until a thin pancake-like batter forms. If too thick, add additional water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Pat chicken dry and season all over with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place chicken in bowl with batter and stir until coated.

    Transfer chicken to plate with panko and flip until coated all over, pressing gently to adhere.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    Line another plate with a paper towel.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add canola oil. Let oil heat, 5 minutes. Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of batter to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.

    Working in batches, carefully add chicken to hot oil. Cook until golden-brown and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to towel-lined plate.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Noodle Salad

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

    In another mixing bowl, combine orange ginger sesame sauce (to taste), 1 Tbsp. water, slaw mix, white portions of green onions, *noodles, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine boom boom sauce (to taste) and hot honey (to taste).

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping chicken with sauce (to taste). Alternatively, serve sauce on the side for dipping. Garnish noodle salad with green portions of green onions and sesame seeds. Bon appétit!
