Wegmans Organic Ground ChickenChef's tipGround chicken is often leaner than ground lamb and can dry out more quickly. When browning it, add a little oil if needed and keep the pan juices unless the recipe says to drain them. Cook just until it reaches 165°F (74°C). - 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
Chef's tipShred it and warm it gently; dairy-free cheddar melts best baked into a dish.
