Apple Cider Vinegar Chicken


In a mothers' forum I'm visiting, LC shared this and it was a hit with all who tried this recipe.  I decided to give it a try but decided to reduce vinegar for I do not know how my kids will response to vinegar cooking.  Seasoning was also reduced as I reckon it might be too salty for my family.

I've cooked this several times, with chicken quarters and mid-joint chicken wings.  My kids prefer the latter, maybe because the skin was intact.  DH on the other hand shuns away from vinegar so I never cook this whenever he comes home for dinner.

If you like pork trotters vinegar, I'm sure you will like this too.  And a plus point is, you don't even need to marinate the meat in advance!   Quick and easy!

Apple Cider Vinegar Chicken
Ingredients
300 - 400g chicken wing or baby pork rib (here I used chicken quarters, deskined)
1 1/4 tbsp dark soya sauce (originally 2 tbsp)
1 1/4 tbsp light soya sauce (originally 2 tbsp)
1 tbsp of sugar, or honey
2- 3 tbsp of apple cider (originally 7 tbsp)
Enough water to cover the meat

Method
  1. Wash and cut chicken quarters into cubes.
  2. Add chicken pieces and all seasonings in a pot.  Using medium fire, cook till sauce is boiling.  Reduce fire and simmer for 30 to 40 mins.

Thanks for visiting. I like your braised bittergourd with prime ribs but no chance to cook it.
