Easy Sous Vide Whole Chicken Recipe
Report
Sous Vide Whole Chicken is one of the most delicious recipes for a whole chicken – tender, juicy, and perfectly “roasted” rotisserie-style chicken (not poached) in your sous vide water bath! I
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken (fresh or frozen*)
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons paprika (or smoked paprika)
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 3 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- onions
- lemon
- garlic
- optional herbs like rosemary and thyme
Instructions
- Preheat the sous vide machine. Fill a large container or pot with water. Attach the sous vide precision cooker and set the temperature to 155°F (66°C).
- Stuff the chicken with onions, lemons, garlic and optional herbs.
- In a small bowl, whisk together paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper until combined.
- Then rub half of the seasoning evenly over the chicken.
- Place the seasoned chicken in a bag. Vacuum seal using a vacuum sealer or a zip-loc bag.. If you use a zip-loc bag, you’ll need to seal all but one corner of the bag, and slowly place it in the water bath. Make sure everything below the zip-line is covered by water. Then seal the rest of the bag.
- Keep the bag in the sous vide water bath and cook for 6 hours. (Make sure the chicken is fully submerged while the seams of the bag are above water. You can add heavy kitchen items to weigh the bag down if necessary.)
- Cover the pot with aluminum foil. Check from time to time, and add more water if needed.
- When the timer goes off, remove the chicken from the bag and pat dry with paper towels. (Be very gentle and not to break the skin.)
- Rub the chicken with oil and sprinkle the rest of the seasoning over the cooked chicken.
- Place the chicken onto a baking dish and bake at 450°F for about 20 minutes until the skin is brown and crispy. Serve and enjoy!

Notes
- *If you use frozen chicken, the cooking time is the same as a fresh whole chicken.
