Didnt have any balsamic so did it without and it was yummy
Chicken was tender and delicious. A little too sweet for us, so next time will half the brown sugar and honey.
Did this last week. Didn’t use sugar because of honey in recipe. Tasted delicious, very similar to Ken Homs Master Sauce but cheaper. Will be doing again.
Yum Yum
Was unsure of taste with so much vinegar BUT loved the taste once cooked.
Definitely a keeper.
Made this last night and was a massive hit with the family. May cook a little less time tho as my slow cooker cooks hotter. Saved the sauce for later stage. Cant wait to make again!!
The balsamic was a bit over powering for my kids, but myself and my husband enjoyed it.
The balsamic flavour was a little to overpowering for our taste buds, but in saying that it did taste good.
Perfection!! I Cooked a whole chook, just cut the wings off, followed the recipe just added a dash of sesame oil, meat fell off the bones.. 11 year old going back for thirds.. yaay
Yummy! Very tasty, easy, meat was fall off the bone. Definitely one to make again!
This was so delicious! The entire family including two toddlers gobbled it up! Will definitely be in our rotation now ! Thanks !
It’s a winner! I added carrot and cauliflower to the dish and then greens for the last half hour. I also cooked up rice but with the vegetables in the dish there was no need for rice.. we all loved it and will definitely make it again.
Delicious! Kids hadn’t even finished before they asked when we could have it again. I used
have made this several times and it never fails. Absolutely delicious and an added bonus that my fussy family enjoy it also.
I highly recommend this recipe
I love this. I have used the recipe on chicken , beef and lamb. Delicious!
Could chicken off bone be used and how long would it take?
You sure can – thigh fillets are best Jennifer 🙂 I’d give them around 4-5hrs low
Perfect thanks!
We had this last night, I used thigh cutlets and only used 1/4 cup of sugar, the smell was amazing whilst cooking, I stirred through some frozen vegetables and heated up a sachet of microwave rice, and easy Friday night meal.
So happy you enjoyed it Michelle 🙂
This was really tasty. Used thigh fillets as I had them to hand. Cooked on low for under 5 hours. I didn’t use any brown sugar (my error) but we didn’t miss it. We often have soy, honey, ginger, garlic as a marinade, but I like the inclusion of balsamic vinegar. Much deeper flavour. I will do it again. Thank you, Paulene.
