Sous Vide Chicken and Artichokes

Tonight my experiment was to make a simple chicken and artichoke meal sous vide – something with tender and juicy chicken and a delicious sauce. This dish does just that – flavorful sous vide chicken with a silky, savory, citrus tinged sauce. I like this type of dish in various other incarnations – chicken piccata, chicken marsala, etc.  And I enjoy the subtle flavors added by the artichokes and sun dried tomatoes into this simple sherry and lemon sauce. I paired it with orzo and roasted Brussels sprouts, a delightful combination all around and the sides are just as simple to prepare as the main dish. Give it a try and enjoy this tasty chicken dish – easily prepared using your sous vide cooking device! Save Print Sous…
