I was given a bottle of organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar as part of the Alce Nero's sponsorship. I didn't really make use of it. Instead, I add 2 TBSP of it into my drinking bottle as I know that apple cider vinegar act as an antioxidant and aids in weight loss. I also usually add apple cider to my salads as well. Other than that, I don't really know what to do with it. Call it a coincident or whatever you want to, I found a crock pot which my mother gave me ages ago in my storeroom; I was in a spring cleaning mood. As I unboxed the crock pot, I remembered my mother used to make apple chicken soup. And I also remembered that apple cider is the main ingredient.

I phoned up my mum and asked for the recipe. Somehow or rather, I can't help but change the whole recipe and make it into my own. I replaced the Chinese herbs with some Western spices. Instead of adding chicken stock, I only use apple cider vinegar as the only liquid ingredient. My mother will be thinking that I must be crazy. Lol! Anyway, as I was cooking the chicken, I kinda improvised along the way and this is how this open faced sandwich is born.

The magic of using a crock pot or slow cooker is that it is able to retain the liquid. It will not dry out the chicken breast or any other kinda meat and you don't have to worry about the dish burning. Maybe I should start using the crock pot more often. I am thinking of BBQ pulled chicken or even teriyaki pulled chicken. Let's see. As for now, I really hope you wil
