Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and cook the chicken

  • Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel; season generously with salt and pepper.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking, turning occasionally, until firm and cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate. 

Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables and garnish.

 

2

Prep the vegetables and garnish

  • Trim the root ends from the baby broccoli.
  • Cut the fennel lengthwise into quarters and cut away the core; thinly slice the quarters crosswise.
  • Cut a small corner from the potato packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
  • Set aside half the Italian salsa verde for serving.
  • Cut the lemon into wedges for garnish. [Cut 1 lemon into wedges; save the remaining lemon for another use.]

3

Cook the vegetables

In another large frying pan over medium heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the sous vide potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a plate and season to taste with salt and pepper. 

In the same pan used for the potatoes, if dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Warm over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the baby broccoli and fennel and season with salt and pepper; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in half the Italian salsa verde.

Serve

Transfer the chicken and vegetables to individual plates. Drizzle with the remaining salsa verde and serve with the lemon wedges.
