- Ground Beef 160° F |

Customize It Instructions
-
If using 20 oz. steak strips, follow same instructions as 10 oz. steak strips, working in batches if necessary. You may have leftover filling.
-
If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.
-
If using diced chicken thighs, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.
-
If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes.
