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 |

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Cut potatoes into 1/2" dice.

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

  2. 2

    Make the Chowder

    Place a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add corn, poblanos (to taste), potatoes, mirepoix base, cream base, pot roast seasoning, and 3/4 cup water to hot pot. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, reduce heat to low. Stir occasionally until potatoes are tender and soup thickens slightly, 15-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While chowder simmers, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Sear the Scallops

    Pat scallops dry and season all over with lemon n herb seasoning.

    Scallops will vary in amount as they are portioned by weight. Don't worry, the sweet flavor and tender texture will be the same.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Let heat, 3 minutes.

    Add scallops to hot pan and cook undisturbed, 90 seconds.

    After 90 seconds, stir occasionally until scallops reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 60-90 seconds.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Crisp Bacon and Finish Dish

    Line a microwave-safe plate with a paper towel. Spread bacon in an even layer on towel-lined plate.

    Microwave until crisp, 1-2 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave.
