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.

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 3-4 minutes per side. 

  1. 1

    Cook the Pork Chops

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

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

    Pork chop thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner chop, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

    Remove from burner. Rest, 3 minutes.

    While pork cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Start the Fried Rice

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

    Add mixed peppers and a pinch of salt to hot pan. Stir often until tender, 3-4 minutes.

    Add minced garlic and chili pepper (to taste). Stir occasionally until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

  3. 3

    Finish the Fried Rice

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove from packaging.

    Add rice, edamame, and garlic salt to hot pan. Stir occasionally until rice is heated through, 3-5 minutes.

    Add 2/3 the soy sauce (reserve remaining for sauce) and stir to combine.

    Remove from burner.

    While fried rice cooks, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Drain mandarin oranges and coarsely chop.

    Add chopped oranges, orange sauce, and remaining soy sauce to a microwave-safe bowl.

    Microwave uncovered until sauce is heated through, 15-30 seconds.

    Carefully remove from microwave.
