"This slightly, or perhaps very, obscure way of cooking chicken breasts is based on the recherché restaurant technique of cooking sous-vide.

The idea is that the meat or fish is poached very, very slowly, and then finished in a frying pan, giving you the best of both worlds: an exceptionally tender and succulent interior without sacrificing the crisp outside. — Anne Bell, Low Carb Revolution : Comfort Eating for Good Health...."
