Best Sous Vide Chicken Breast Recipes
SOUS VIDE CAJUN BONELESS CHICKEN BREAST WITH CREAMY PAN SAUCE
Flavorful Cajun seasoning, cream, and Parmesan cheese are the stars in this dish, as is the incredibly juicy chicken that results from cooking sous vide. Traditionally you need to cook chicken to 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) or until no longer pink, however with sous vide cooking, you can achieve the same safety with extended cooking time at lower temperatures. Using an ice bath will lower the chicken temperature slightly, so that it does not overcook during the searing step. If you prefer a lot of sauce, double the sauce ingredients.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with water and place a sous vide cooker into the water. Set temperature to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) according to manufacturer's directions.
- Pound chicken breasts with a meat mallet to an even 3/4- to 1-inch thickness. Season both sides with Cajun seasoning. Place chicken into vacuum bags and seal using a vacuum sealer.
- Lower bags into the water, making sure they are fully submerged, and set timer for 1 hour. When timer is up, remove chicken from water and immediately place into an ice bath for 5 minutes. Remove chicken from bag and pat completely dry with paper towels.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and avocado oil in a large skillet over high heat until just smoking. Sear chicken for 30 to 45 seconds per side, moving the chicken around in the skillet to get all sides evenly browned. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Melt butter for sauce in the same skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, 15 to 30 seconds. Whisk in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly reduced down, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in heavy cream and black pepper and return to a light simmer. Cook, whisking continually, until thickened. Stir in Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon at a time, until melted and combined. Taste sauce and adjust salt, if needed. Sprinkle in thyme and drizzle sauce over chicken.

Steps:
- Heat water in a sous-vide water bath to 141 degrees F (60.5 degrees C).
- Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of heavy plastic wrap on a work surface. Flatten chicken with smooth side of a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness.
- Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and Cajon seasoning; cook and stir until onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Place mozzarella cheese, mushrooms, egg, bread crumbs, parsley, and Parmesan cheese together with onion mixture in bowl of a food processor; blend into paste.
- Spread paste onto one side of chicken breasts; roll breasts and secure with toothpicks. Spread remaining paste and sprinkle Cajun seasoning onto rolled breasts; place in individual sealable plastic bags. Seal bags (on low pressure if using a vacuum sealer), removing as much air as possible. Cook chicken in the preheated water bath for 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
