Chef's Valentine's Day Dinner Heating Instructions

Reheat time is approximately 30+ minutes. All items are fully cooked. Unless otherwise noted, reheat all foods until internal temperature reaches 165F. Check internal temperature with a cooking thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the food (without touching the bones of meats). Reheating times may vary based on oven type, accuracy of oven temperature, quantity of food, and/or other variables.
