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. 

  • If using shrimp, pat dry. Cook until pink and shrimp reach minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Salsa Verde Crema

    Hold romaine heart at root end and thinly slice.

    Core tomato and cut into 1/2" dice.

    In a mixing bowl, combine salsa verde (to taste), sour cream, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Filling

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

    Add ground turkey and diced peppers (if you receive a whole bell pepper, cut into 1/2" dice) to hot pan. Break up meat until no pink remains, peppers are tender, and turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 7-9 minutes.

    Remove from burner and drain any excess grease. Pan will be hot! Use caution.

    Stir taco seasoning into filling until combined.

    While filling cooks, continue recipe.
