Ingredients
1 medium/large bird
Whole Chicken
2 tbsp
Ghee
1/2 medium
White onion
(minced)
3 clove(s)
Garlic
1 1/2 cup
Apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup
Tomato sauce, canned
(or crushed tomatoes)
2 tbsp
Tomato paste, canned
3 tbsp
Honey
2 tsp
Salt
2 tsp
Black pepper
1 tsp
Tabasco sauce
(or hot sauce)
Instructions
1. Rinse the chicken and pat it dry.
2. Place the chicken in the slow cooker and sprinkle with 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Cook on HIGH for 3 hours or LOW for 5 hours.
3. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, melt the ghee over medium heat. Add the minced onion and cook for 4-5 minutes or until softened.
4. Add the rest of the ingredients: garlic, apple cider vinegar, tomato sauce, tomato paste, honey and remaining salt and black pepper, and Tabasco. Stir well and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer over low heat.
5. Simmer the sauce until the volume has reduced by a quarter to a third. It should be slightly thickened but not pasty.
6. When the chicken has cooled a bit shred all the meat and unite it with the tangy, savoury sauce. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days, or store in your freezer and heat again with the crock pot.
