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) |

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Remove stems and seeds, and cut bell peppers into 1/4" rings.

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Coarsely crush crispy red peppers in shipping bag.

    Pat chicken dry and season both sides with 1/2 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. Top chicken evenly with crushed crispy red peppers, pressing firmly to adhere to one side.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add chicken to hot pan, crust-side down, 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.

    Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to a plate and tent with foil. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Return pan used to cook chicken to medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add white portions of green onions and bell peppers to hot pan and stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 4-5 minutes.

    Stir in softened cream cheese, pesto, 3/4 cup water, 1/2 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until combined and slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Pasta and Finish Dish

    Add pasta to hot pan and stir until coated and heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing pasta with green portions of green onions and shredded cheese. Bon appétit!
