Half Chicken Sous Vide

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Prepare the Chicken

Season the chicken halves with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Place fresh thyme sprigs on top of the chicken.

2

Sous Vide Cook

Place the seasoned chicken halves in a vacuum-sealed bag. Add olive oil and seal the bag. Preheat your sous vide water bath to 165°F (74°C). Cook the chicken in the sous vide bath for 1.5 to 2 hours.

3

Sear the Chicken

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the sous vide bag and pat dry. Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken, skin-side down, until golden brown (about 3-5 minutes). Flip and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes.
