Sous Vide Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken

Ingredients for 2

• 2 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

• 2 thin slices prosciutto

• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Directions

• 

  Step 1

  Set the Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker to 145°F (62°C).

• Step 2

  Slice each breast in half lengthwise and season with salt and pepper.

• Step 3

  Place a piece of plastic wrap on a cutting board. Place 1 slice of prosciutto in the center of the plastic wrap. Lay 2 strips of chicken side-by-side in the center of the prosciutto, thick end to thin end, to form an even rectangle. Roll prosciutto around the chicken to form a uniform cylinder. Wrap tightly in the plastic wrap and tie off the ends with butcher's twine. Repeat with remaining prosciutto and chicken.

• Step 4

  Place the chicken cylinders in a large zipper lock or vacuum seal bag. Seal the bag using the water immersion technique or a vacuum sealer on the moist setting. Place the bag in the the water bath and set the timer for 1 hour.

• Finishing Steps

• Step 0

  When the timer goes off, remove the bag from the water bath. Remove the chicken from the bag. Remove the plastic wrap and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper.

• Step 1

  Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken and sear until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes total.

• Step 2

  Let rest for 10 minutes, slice, and serve.
