How to make it
1
Remove the Factor sleeve and peel back the film partway to vent. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Let stand 1 minute, then carefully remove the film — the tray will be hot. Factor meals are chef-crafted and fully cooked; heat poultry and pork to 165°F, beef to 160°F, and fish to 145°F internally.
2
Oven method: Preheat to 325°F. Remove the sleeve and film entirely. Place the tray on an oven-safe baking sheet and heat for 20-25 minutes until steaming throughout and reaching the appropriate internal temperature. The oven method is ideal for Factor's protein-forward entrées — it preserves texture better than microwave for steak and salmon.

Scampi is a crustacean-based seafood dish, typically featuring langoustine, shrimp or prawns sautéed in olive oil, garlic, and white wine, and garnished with Parmesan cheese and lemon juice, though exact ingredients vary regionally in preparation. The term "scampi" comes from the Italian name for langoustines, which were the original shellfish used in the dish. [1]
