    Do you think you could do this in the slow cooker?? with my new job I dont get in till half 6 :0(

    I don’t see why not, will prob be lovely done in the slow cooker, as it will absorb all the flavour. I would use chicken thighs though, with fat and skin removed.

    Hi going to try this recipe today just wanted to know is it white wine vinegar ro just white wine? Thanks

  • admin

    you can get white wine vinegar in the vinegar aisle of most supermarkets. The rice vineger is usually with the soy sauce and things like that.

    could u use sweetener instead of sugar to reduce the syns or would it not taste as good? or could u just omit it altogether?

    You do need the sugar I think, as that mixed with the honey, gives the chicken the nice golden colour. You could try it without, but for the sake of just 1 syn I would add it ;)
