Time 15m

Yield 1 bird, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

clean cold water
1/2 cup salt, may use less (to taste)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
pancake syrup or artificial sweetener, your choice please add ice cubes if using for more than a few minutes out of the refrigerator

Steps:

  • Remove chicken from package (or if living in a country where chicken is really fresh, remove feathers, entrails (do not crush any bits) head, feet and wingtips and tail).
  • In a large bowl or clean sink put the chicken or cut up pieces of meat then pour on cold water until covered then add 1/2 cup of table salt or use less and 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar.
  • Move the chicken around gently in this mixture for 10 to 15 minutes. Less time is ok if you see that the skin hangs loose on the meat.
  • You can add sugar or brown sugar, molasses, honey, karo syrup, pancake syrup or artificial sweetner to the soak, but that and the salt are a matter of taste.
  • Rinse gently with more clean cold water.
  • Now you are ready to cook stovetop, oven, crock pot, campfire or whatever.
  • Even an old elderly bird will usually be tenderized.
  • My grandma also used this on game to make it tender and moist.
  • Remember to use a sink cleanser that contains bleach on the sink, because chicken is a funny meat. You need to be careful with utensils after they were touched by any raw meat.
  • I mention the clean up, because when I was a new cook I did not know.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work well for this recipe. If using bone-in chicken, increase the marinating time to 24 hours.
  • Make the marinade ahead of time: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. You can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours, but even 30 minutes will make a difference.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, make sure to give it enough space in the pan so that it can brown evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the chicken will steam instead of brown.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Serve immediately: Apple cider chicken is best served immediately after cooking. You can garnish it with fresh parsley or thyme, and serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.

Conclusion:

Apple cider chicken is an easy and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The marinade infuses the chicken with flavor, and the apple cider gives it a slightly sweet and tangy taste. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
