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) |

  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |

Customize It Instructions

  • 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 chicken cutlets, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 3-5 minutes per side. Cutlet thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner cutlet, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Cook the Salmon

    Pat salmon dry and season flesh side with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 4 tsp. olive oil.

    Add salmon, skin-side up, to hot pan and sear until golden-brown and salmon reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.

    Work in batches, if necessary. Remove from burner. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    While salmon cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Drain oranges.

    Trim green beans, if necessary.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

  3. 3

    Heat Rice and Cook Green Beans

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove rice from packaging. Place rice and umami seasoning in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave uncovered until heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Rest, 2 minutes.

    Fluff rice with a fork.

    While rice heats, place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add green beans and white portions of green onions to hot pan and cook, 1 minute.

    Add 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of 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.

    Remove from burner and stir in half the sesame oil (taste, and add remaining, if desired).

  4. 4

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook salmon to medium heat. Add oranges to hot pan and stir occasionally until heated through, 1-2 minutes.

    Add orange ginger sesame sauce (to taste) and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping salmon with sauce (to taste) and green portions of green onions. Garnish green beans with sesame seeds. Bon appétit!
