- sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- A splash of lemon juice per sous vide bag
- 2 tablespoons of butter
-
Sauté in butter

Ready for the sous-vide bath

The ingredients
Method
- Peel and crush the garlic
- Finely chop the small white onion
- Add to a small bowl with a pinch of salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper and mix well
- Cut a deep slice into the side of each breast to create a pocket
- Use half of Le Rustique Camembert wheel, cutting it into eight pieces
- Fill each chicken breast with equal amounts of the garlic mixture and two pieces of Camembert cheese
- I had a few spare cherry tomatoes so slices them and squeezed them in.
- Lay four strips of streaky bacon for each breast and carefully roll the breast up in the bacon.
- Add a splash of lemon juice (or lime juice) to each sous vide bag.
- Using a fish slice slide each chicken breast into the bag and seal - to save the lemon juice being sucked out, press the seal only button the moment the juice starts to run up the bag.
- Cook in a sous vide bath heated to 64° C (147° F) for 2 hours.
- Remove from the bag, reserving any juice for making gravy.
- Pan fry in butter for 3 or 4 minutes until golden brown.
