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 20 oz. steak strips, follow same instructions as 10 oz., working in batches if necessary. 

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

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

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice and 1 1/4 cups water to a boil.

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

    Remove from burner. Stir in adobo seasoning and set aside.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve lime and juice.

    Drain pineapples and cut into 1/4" dice.

    Peel and mince shallot.

    Stem jalapeño, halve, seed, remove ribs, and mince. Wash hands and cutting board after working with jalapeño.

    Pat steak strips dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces.

  3. 3

    Make the Sofrito

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

    Add half the shallots to hot pan (reserve remaining for salsa) and stir occasionally until beginning to soften, 1-2 minutes.

    Add corn and stir often, 1 minute.

    Remove from burner. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add 1/4 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. lime juice (reserve remaining for salsa). Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak Strips

    Return pan used to cook sofrito to medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add steak strips and chile and cumin rub to hot pan. Stir occasionally until no pink remains and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner and stir in butter (to taste). Rest, 3 minutes.

    While steak strips cook, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Make Pineapple Salsa and Finish Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine pineapples, jalapeños (to taste), remaining shallots, and 2 tsp. remaining lime juice. Stir vigorously to combine. Set aside, at least 5 minutes.
