A very tender and tasty low-temperature chicken

Simple, right? For this low temperature chicken recipe we have only taken 45 minutes to prepare it. In addition, to take advantage of the times, we have prepared its garnish while we had the chicken with the sous vide roner.

Chicken breast is a very healthy dish, thanks to its low protein content in saturated fat. By cooking it at low temperature with a roner, we have achieved a much tastier result than grilled.

Although the chicken has a whitish result as in the image above, it is enough to try it to verify its incredible result. In fact, the color is similar to the slices of cooked chicken that you can buy in the supermarket, with the great difference that it does not have any additives.

However, if you prefer to give it a crunchier touch, you can always sear the chicken on a griddle over high heat for 1 minute with a little olive oil.

Lastly, add that this recipe admits all kinds of spices for the chicken. For example, you can add two lemon slices on top of each breast with the suggested spices for a more citrus touch. You can also add other Moorish spices or garlic for a more spicy touch.

Whatever you choose, both in its marinade or garnish, you will enjoy a surprising chicken breast thanks to its vacuum packaging and low temperature cooking. Take advantage!
