Ingredients
– 1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon salt (1.25 – 2.5 ml)
– 1/4 teaspoon celery salt (1.25 ml)
– 1/4 teaspoon ground paprika (1.25 ml)
– 1/4 teaspoon dried garlic powder (1.25 ml)
– Black pepper to taste
– 2 chicken breasts
– 2 teaspoons olive oil (10 ml)
– 1 sprig fresh rosemary
– 1-2 sprigs fresh thyme
– 1 tablespoon (15 ml) vegetable oil
Instructions
Prepare your sous vide equipment according to the manufacturer’s guidelines and set it to 146.5°F.
Combine all the seasoning ingredients in a small bowl and apply this mixture onto the chicken.
Pour the olive oil into the sous vide bag. Lay the chicken flat at the bottom of the bag (fold the rim over before placing the chicken to prevent contamination). Add the thyme and rosemary sprigs and vacuum-seal the bag with moderate snugness.
Submerge the bag in the preheated water bath and cook it for 1 hour with the sous vide machine running, or until fully cooked (use a thermometer to verify the internal temperature if needed).
Remove the chicken from the bag and discard the herbs. Heat the butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. When it starts to sizzle, place the chicken in the pan and brown each side for 30-60 seconds, pressing down slightly to ensure maximum contact between the chicken and the pan. Serve immediately.
Notes
Consider enhancing the herb flavor by adding extra fresh thyme and rosemary to the sous vide bag.
Adjust salt and pepper amounts to suit your taste preferences for a perfectly seasoned chicken dish.
To elevate the dish’s aroma and taste, try using garlic or herb-infused olive oils.
