Serves 4

1 x 360g jar Ballymaloe 100 Recipe Sauce

700 g boneless skinless chicken thighs or fillets

Method

Step 1

Put the Ballymaloe 100 Recipe Sauce and whole chicken thighs or fillets in a slow cooker.

Step 2

Season with salt and pepper, then stir to coat the chicken in the sauce.

Step 3

Note: It might not look like enough sauce, but don’t be tempted to add any extra water or stock – the slow cooker will naturally create condensation as it cooks, which will drip down into the sauce and thin it down a little.

Step 4

Pop on the lid and cook on low for 6 hours, until the chicken easily shreds apart with two forks.
