Cilantro Chicken (Sous-Vide) and Greek Kohlrabi Gratin -- back to top

I have been continuing to have fun with the sous-vide cooker. It really just makes it so easy. Meredith made her cilantro dip. I took two pieces of chicken and scored it a bit with a knife and then put tons of the dip in the bag.

I followed the Serious Eats guide and did the chicken at 150°F for about 1.5 hours. True to what they said, it came out a lot like normal chicken texture but still really moist. Still, given the flexibility, Next time I think 145°F will be better (between this and Serious Eats' next temp range).

Flavor wise, this was ok. I really like the dip but the chicken could have been brined or something to get more flavor inside it. And/or, it may have been better with a longer (or any) marinate time. We were going to marinate it for a bit but based on the timing, we decided to just let it cook longer (the beauty of Sous Vide).

We also had Kohlrabi we needed to use up. I was going to stir fry it but Meredith wanted to do something different so she decided to Kohlrabi Gratin from this NYTimes recipe (local).

We did it the "gratin" style and halved it. Other changes/modifications were:

• Subbed cilantro for parsley
• Used dried dill instead of fresh (at about 1/2 the amount. ~1.5 Tbsp)
• Used baby kale in place of the kohlrabi greens
• Lite feta

It was pretty good. It was very reminiscent of other greek pie dishes. That is probably from the feta and dill. We would make it again.

Chicken Skewers and Kohlrabi Gratin -- back to top

We had bought some pre-assembled chicken skewers for the night before and didn't end up needing them so we had them for dinner. They were Chicken Teriyaki. We just baked them for about 25 minutes at 375 with the Kohlrabi Gratin.

We did the same Kohlrabi Gratin as last time with most of the same changes except we actually had the Kohlrabi greens. It was, again, pretty good. We like this and will do it again.
