Before You Cook

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.

  1. 1

    Roast the Fries

    Peel and cut both potatoes into 1/4" fries and pat dry.

    Place fries, 4 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, half the piri piri seasoning (to taste; reserve remaining for after roasting), and a pinch of pepper on prepared baking sheet. Massage oil and seasonings into fries. Spread into an even layer.

    Roast in hot oven until lightly browned, 25-30 minutes, tossing fries halfway through.

    Carefully remove from oven. Add remaining piri piri seasoning (to taste) and gently toss to coat.

    While fries roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Toast the Buns

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

    Spray cut-sides of buns with cooking spray. Working in batches if necessary, add buns, cut-side down, to hot, dry pan.

    Toast until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes.

    Transfer buns to a plate. Wipe pan clean and keep over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Heat Oil and Make Batter

    Add canola oil to hot pan. Let oil heat, 5 minutes.

    While oil heats, in a mixing bowl, combine tempura mix and 1/2 cup water until a thin batter forms, like pancake batter.

    If too thick, add additional cold water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry.

    Place chicken into bowl with batter and stir until evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Cook Chicken and Finish Dish

    Line another plate with a paper towel.

    Working in batches if necessary, lay chicken in hot oil. Flip occasionally until crispy, golden-brown, and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-6 minutes.

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

    Remove from burner and transfer chicken to towel-lined plate.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping bottom bun with chicken, pickles, dressing, then top bun. Bon appétit!
