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 antibiotic free chicken breasts, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using filets mignon, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side. 

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry and season both sides with poultry seasoning and half the onion salt (reserve remaining for vegetables).

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 3-5 minutes per side.

    Cutlet thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner cutlet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

    Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to a plate and tent with foil. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

    While chicken cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Cut broccoli into 1" bite-sized pieces. Trim discolored ends, if necessary.

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

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add carrots and 3 Tbsp. water to hot pan and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, cover and cook until water is mostly evaporated and carrots are slightly tender, 3-5 minutes.

    Uncover and add broccoli and half the butter (reserve remaining for sauce). Stir often until vegetables are tender and lightly browned, 3-5 minutes.

    Stir in honey, chicken base, remaining onion salt, and a pinch of pepper. Stir often until vegetables are glazed, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook chicken to medium heat. Add remaining butter, 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1/4 tsp. lemon zest, capers, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Stir often, lightly smashing capers, and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, remove from burner.
