When I saw the recipe in an Eating Well mag, I knew I had to give it ago. I switched up some amounts, the serving size, and the thickening agent (to make it gluten free) and can I just say – twenty minute comfort food at its best.
Slow Cooked BBQ Chicken with Avocado Apple Slaw
This is a standby entertaining meal for me, the ease of which I’ll describe below, but the real star of the show here is the slaw, the leftovers of which I ate for breakfast. No kissing people for a while, due to the raw garlic, but when the food tastes this good it’s worth...
