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 ground turkey, add meatballs to hot pan and cook until turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 11-13 minutes.

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice, 1 1/4 cups water, and a pinch of salt to a boil.

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

    Stir in half the green onions (prepared in a later step; reserve remaining for sauce) until combined.

    Remove from burner and set aside.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim green beans, if necessary, and cut into 1" pieces.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions.

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, panko, Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (use less if spice-averse), and 1/4 tsp. salt. Form mixture into 8 equally-sized meatballs.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

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

    Add meatballs to hot pan. Cover and roll occasionally until browned all over and meatballs reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 8-10 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Cook the Green Beans

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

    Add green beans to hot pan and cook, 1 minute.

    After 1 minute, add 1/4 cup water and 1/4 tsp. salt. Cover and stir occasionally until tender, 6-8 minutes.

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

  5. 5

    Add Sauce and Meatballs and Finish Dish

    Transfer meatballs to hot pan with green beans.

    Stir in soy sauce, orange sauce, and remaining green onions until combined.

    Remove from burner.
