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

  • If using top round steak, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 3-5 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.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Quarter potatoes.

    Place potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and cover with a damp paper towel.

    Microwave covered until tender, 6-8 minutes.

    While potatoes microwave, trim green beans, if necessary, and cut into 1" pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork Chops

    Pat pork chops dry and season both sides with garlic salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Working in batches if necessary, add pork chops to hot pan and cook until golden-brown and chops reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-5 minutes per side.

    Pork thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner chop, we recommend checking for doneness sooner. Remove from burner. Transfer to a plate. Rest, 3 minutes.

    Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    While pork cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    Place another large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil.

    Add microwaved potatoes, green beans, and half the potato spice seasoning (reserve remaining for after cooking) to hot pan. Stir occasionally until potatoes are golden-brown and green beans are tender, 8-10 minutes.

    If green beans need more time, add 2 Tbsp. water, cover, and stir occasionally, 1-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in pesto and remaining potato spice seasoning.

  4. 4

    Make Gravy and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook pork to medium heat.

    Add flour and butter to hot pan. Stir often until butter is melted and no dry flour remains, 30-60 seconds.

    Add honey, chicken base, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer, stirring often.

    Once simmering, remove from burner.
