Ingredients

  • 1 chicken breast We recommend boneless and skinless. You can use fresh or frozen chicken, and the timing below will still be the same
  • 1 bunch of rosemary
  • Juice of ½ lemon fresh
  • 2-3 cloves garlic
  • 1 pinch salt / pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  • Set your sous vide for 140°F and start it. If you’re using the Anova 750w and want to speed up the time it takes the water to heat up, boil water in a pot on the stove and fill the sous vide with about 50% tap water and 50% boiling water. Since boiling water is 212°F, you will jump instantly to about 140°F.
  • Chop your garlic and rosemary.
  • Salt and pepper your chicken.
  • Fill up your sous vide container with water. 
  • Get a Ziploc bag and check for leaks by filling it with water and seeing if any comes out.
  • Empty the ziploc bag of all water.
  • Put chicken, butter, lemon juice, garlic, and rosemary into bag.
  • Leaving the open part of the bag dry, submerge the rest of the bag into container full of water to get the air out.
  • Seal the bag.
  • Cook chicken in sous vide for 2 - 2.5 hours.
  • Remove from sous vide and bag and dry thoroughly with paper towel.
  • Sear on grill, skillet, or with a blow torch for 2 minutes on each side of the chicken.
  • Serve
