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 diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. 

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken and Peppers

    Pat chicken dry. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken, mixed peppers, fajita seasoning, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until chicken is slightly browned and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

    Add enchilada sauce (to taste) and 1/4 cup water. Stir often until chicken and peppers are coated, 1-2 minutes.

    Kids not a fan of extra heat? Feel free to skip/reduce the enchilada sauce.

    Remove from burner.

    While chicken and peppers cook, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Heat the Rice

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps and remove from packaging.

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine rice, corn, fiesta seasoning, 1/2 tsp. salt, 2 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of pepper.

    Microwave uncovered until heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Rest, 2 minutes.

    Fluff rice with a fork.

  3. 3

    Heat the Tortillas

    Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel. If tortillas come folded, keep folded.

    Microwave until heated through, 30-60 seconds.

    Carefully remove from microwave.

    While tortillas microwave, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Assemble Slaw and Finish Dish

    In a mixing bowl, combine slaw mix, 1/4 tsp. salt, and dressing.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, filling tortillas with chicken-pepper mixture and slaw. Garnish with cheese. Bon appétit!
