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

Customize It Instructions

  • If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. 

  1. 1

    Prepare Cilantro and Start Filling

    Mince cilantro (no need to stem).

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add ground turkey and pepper and onion mix to hot pan. Stir occasionally, breaking up meat until no pink remains and turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 6-8 minutes.

  2. 2

    Finish the Filling

    Stir marinara, 1/2 cup water, chile and cumin rub, and 1/2 tsp. salt into hot pan until completely combined. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce thickens, 6-8 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While filling cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Heat the Rice

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove rice from packaging. Place rice and 1/4 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. Stir in half the cilantro (reserve remaining for tacos).

  4. 4

    Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until warm, 30-60 seconds.
