Hi guys, do you think it's doable to confit chickenbreast sous vide, then grill it in the oven for a couple of minutes to crisp the skin, then add some chévre on top of the skin, back in the oven for a couple of minutes to melt and grill the cheese?
I'm a bit afraid this will dry out the meat. Would it perhaps be better to sear the skin in a pan, then melt the cheese in the oven? Or maybe serve with hasselback with cheese added to those?
Sides will be fennel and some asparagus, with beurre monté.

I have no idea. Do a cook along.

I think I'll go for searing in a pan first, then grill with chevre sliced thin on top for as short time as possible. Guess that's the least risky method.
Why bother? Butterfly that shit, stuff it with cheese.
Pan fry to crisp the skin
Into the oven for 20 mins.
Done.

According to modernist cuisine, you should remove the skin, cook it separately, then re-attach wit xanthan gum or something.

man, i'd brine it in pickle juice (minus the skin).. confit it in duck fat and aromatics in sous vide.. dunk in buttermilk/dredge/bread/fry, make a cream sauce out of the chevre, make a gastrique with hot sauce/apple cider vinegar/sugar, and garnish with pickled something. probably like shallots or fennel.
but that's just what i'd say to try if you're really swingin for the fences. otherwise, yeah; obviously you're going to want to eat a hasselback potato with that.
