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 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

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

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

    Pat chicken dry and season both sides with rotisserie chicken seasoning and 1/4 tsp. salt.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    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.

    Reduce heat to medium-low. Add half the maple syrup (reserve remaining for sauce) and 1 tsp. lime juice (reserve remaining for sauce). Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, flip chicken until coated, 30-60 seconds.

    Remove from burner.

    While chicken cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Carrots

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add butter and white portions of green onions to hot pan. Stir occasionally until butter is melted and green onions are fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

    Add carrots and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer.

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

    Uncover and stir in 1/4 tsp. salt and garlic pepper until lightly browned, 2-4 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While carrots cook, continue recipe.

  4. 4
