Cook the chicken breasts at 147F
for 45 minutes. We find that any temperature
between 140F-147F works well. See Cooking
Chicken Sous Vide.
You can leave it in the water
bath till ready to serve. Since cooking times
will vary with meat thickness it is important
to adjust temperatures accordingly. For accurate
