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

    Make the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 11/2 cups water to a boil.

    Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

    While rice cooks, mince cilantro; no need to stem.

    Remove from burner. Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in cilantro. Cover and set aside.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Zest and halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

  3. 3

    Cook the Filling

    Drain pineapple.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add ground pork, poblano (use less if spice-averse), 1/2 tsp. salt, and chipotle seasoning (use less if spice-averse) to hot pan. Stir often, breaking up pork, until peppers are tender, no pink remains on pork, and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 6-8 minutes.

    Add tomato puree, pineapple, and 1/4 cup water. Stir occasionally until sauce coats pork, 4-5 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in 2 tsp. lime juice and 1 tsp. lime zest.

  4. 4

    Heat Tortillas and Finish Dish

    Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until warm, 30-60 seconds.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, filling tortillas with filling and topping with cheese. Squeeze lime wedges over to taste. Bon appétit!
