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 petite scallops, pat dry. Let oil in pan heat, 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, cook undisturbed, 90 seconds. After 90 seconds, stir occasionally until scallops reach minimum internal temperature, 60-90 seconds. Scallops will vary in amount as they are portioned by weight. Don't worry, the sweet flavor and tender texture will be the same.

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

  • If using steak strips, pat dry, coarsely chop, then separate pieces. Stir occasionally until steak reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Remove stem, seeds, and ribs, and cut bell pepper into 1/4” slices.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Pat sliced pork dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables and Pork

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

    Add bell peppers, carrots, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until vegetables are slightly browned, 2-3 minutes.

    Add sliced pork. Stir occasionally until pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Sauce

    In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, gochujang (use less if spice-averse), cornstarch, 1/4 cup water, and mushroom base.

    Add white portions of green onions, cornstarch mixture (to taste), and butter to hot pan. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
