In this recipe, you will cook the steak for one hour, which is just enough time to break down the fibers. Complete with greens, this recipe is perfect for a light but fulfilling and delicious meal.
Ingredients for 2
- 2 (7-ounce) filet mignon steaks
- ½ cup teriyaki sauce
- 4 tablespoons sesame oil
- 6 brocollini florets
- 3 scallions, sliced into 2-inch segments
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
Directions

Set the BioloMix Sous Vide Cooker to 134ºF (57ºC).
Step 2
Slice each steak into two pieces horizontally so that they will lie flat on the bottom of the bag.
Step 3
Place two steak halves in one zipper lock bag. Place the other two steak halves in a second zipper lock bag. Divide teriyaki sauce evenly between both bags. Seal the bags using the water immersion technique.
Step 4
Place the bags in the water bath and set the timer for 1 hour.
