Step 1

Prep the sous vide machine by filling the container with water per the instructions in the recipe you're using. Set your cell phone app. with the amount of time you'd like to cook your chicken. If you just want to cook 3 chicken breasts with seasoning set for 149° for 2hours. Sous vide meat can cook all day and not get overcooked, just tender.

Step 2

Place each chicken breasts in a seal-able bag. Divide lime juice between each bag. Divide spices between each bag. Massage the spices and lime juice into the chicken. Seal the bags, removing as much air as possible.

Step 3

Insert the bags of chicken into the sous vide container that has been filled half way with water. Clamp the anova sous vide machine to the container and set your time and temp on the app.

Step 4

When timing on chicken is almost done add olive oil to skillet. Add chicken and brown for 5 minutes. Set chicken aside to cool for 5 minutes before slicing chicken into diagonal strips for presentation. Drizzle teriyaki sauce on top before serving.

Step 5

If making cole slaw: Slice 1 head cabbage. Shredding it is ok too, but the pieces will be very small and not as good. Shred 5 carrots, slice 6 radishes into small sticks, and slice 1 green onion. Set aside green onions.

Step 6

Place cabbage, carrots, and radish into large cooking pot. Cook on medium, stirring, frequently until cabbage is soft, but still has a bite to it. Pour in marinade, approximately 1⁄4 cup, stir, and taste. Add more if desired. Stir in green onions and almond slivers.
