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

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side. 

  • If using NY strip steak, 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.

  1. 1

    Cook the Pork Chops

    Pat pork chops dry and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and ancho cinnamon rub (use less if spice-averse).

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. 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 and cover with foil. Rest, 3 minutes.

    Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    While pork cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Cook the Green Beans

    Trim green beans, if necessary.

    Mince garlic.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add half the garlic (reserve remaining for sauce) to hot pan and stir occasionally, 30 seconds.

    Add green beans and stir occasionally, 1 minute.

    Add 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and garlic pepper. Cover and cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.

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

    Uncover and stir in half the butter (reserve remaining for sauce). Remove from burner.

    While green beans cook, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    Stem and mince thyme.

    Return pan used to cook pork chops to medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add remaining garlic to hot pan and stir occasionally until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

    Add peach preserves, 1/2 tsp. thyme (remaining is yours to use as you please!), and 3 Tbsp. water. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, add remaining butter and whisk or stir vigorously until melted and combined, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
