Great recipe. First try and it was delicious. Hard to get head around 8 hour cooking time but between that time and the spices used it turned out fantastic. Thanks for providing method and recipes that really work. ---

@berge, did you use this Chicken Confit recipe? > **[Sous Vide Chicken Confit](https://recipes.anovaculinary.com/recipe/sous-vide-chicken-confit)** > > Give us anything “confit” and we’re likely to eat it. Very quickly. And ask for seconds. This Sous Vide Chicken Confit is no exception. > > A more traditional confit would be prepared using chicken fat and would involve at least a day of seasoning in... It has an 8 hour cook time (for a whole chicken). Can this be adapted to cook pieces (say leg quarters) and cooking time reduced (maybe 2 hours)? I’m not familiar with Confit, so might be missing something. ---

The tenderness of the meat and the flavor also. If i would change anything it would be to lower the amount of salt.
