Summer time means corn, and tomatoes, and general deliciousness that begs to be maximized with minimal effort. Pair with juicy chicken and you have a winner. The easiest way to do that is sous vide of course!
So grab some cherry tomatoes from the back yard, raid the farm next door for some sweet corn, fire up the bath, and get ready for an easy weeknight meal that will make you go yum.
