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
  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken and Vegetables

    Pat chicken dry and place in one provided tray. Top evenly with 2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper.

    In second provided tray, combine 2 tsp. olive oil, carrots, peppers, cabbage, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Bake Meal and Add Sauce

    Bake both trays uncovered in hot oven until vegetables are tender and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 20-25 minutes.

    While meal bakes, in a mixing bowl, combine brown stir fry sauce, orange sauce (use less if spice-averse), 1/4 cup water, and brown sugar.

    Carefully remove both trays from oven. Drain excess liquid from trays. Trays will be hot! Use a utensil. Transfer chicken to tray with vegetables and gently stir to combine. Transfer half the chicken and vegetable mixture to now-empty tray. Divide sauce mixture (to taste) between trays and stir until coated.

  3. 3

    Heat Rice and Finish Dish

    Bake both trays uncovered in hot oven until sauce is bubbling, 10-15 minutes.

    While meal bakes, carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove rice from packaging. Place rice and 1/2 tsp. salt 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.

    Coarsely crush cashews in shipping bag.

    Stem cilantro and tear leaves.

    Carefully remove trays from oven.

    To serve, top rice with chicken and vegetable mixture (to taste) and garnish with crushed cashews and cilantro. Bon appétit!
