Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pound the chicken breasts between plastic wrap until they reach a uniform thickness of 1.5 cm to ensure even cooking.
  2. Combine lemon juice, crushed garlic, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade emulsion.
  3. Marinate the protein sous vide or in an airtight container for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  4. Preheat the griddle to high heat with a light smoke point before adding fat.
  5. Sear the pieces for 5-6 minutes per side, allowing the Maillard reaction without premature mechanical manipulation.
  6. Rest the meat for 5 minutes before slicing for redistribution of internal juices.
  7. Portion into 150g servings and prepare mise en place for airtight storage.
  8. Reheat in a technical pan over medium heat, hydrating with a touch of citrus to maintain juiciness.
