-
If using antibiotic free chicken breasts, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.
-
If using filets mignon, 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.
-
If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side.
-
Cook the Pork Chops
Pat pork chops dry and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and chimichurri seasoning.
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. Rest, 3 minutes.

Cook the Green Beans
Trim green beans, if necessary.
Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.
Add green beans, 2 Tbsp. water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan. Cover and stir occasionally until tender, 8-10 minutes.
If green beans need more time, add 2 Tbsp. water and stir occasionally, 1-3 minutes.
