Cooking Guidelines
To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

-
2 Add the Chicken
Pat chicken dry.
Place chicken in now-empty side of tray. Top evenly with a pinch of salt, mayonnaise, crispy jalapeños (use less if spice-averse), then cheese. -
3 Bake the Meal
Bake uncovered in hot oven until zucchini is tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 18-22 minutes.
Cutlet thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner cutlet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner. If cheese is browning too fast, cover with foil.Carefully remove tray from oven. Rest, 5 minutes.Bon appétit!
