SYN FREE BBQ SAUCE

Made this in the week it is lush, had it with chicken wrapped in parma ham poured the sauce over and topped with cheese. x
 
Yummy is the only word to describe this recipe! Just made hunters chicken and it was to die for... and all syn free!
 
I tried this the other week and it was lovely, i had it on chicken toppped with cheese and bacon (hunters chicken) it was so yummy.
 
I made this at the weekend just to taste it in preparation to have with a meal this week( Hunter Chicken) however I must be going wrong somewhere because surely my husband and I cant be the only ones that dont like this sauce?? We both found it terribly terribly sweet is it really 3 TABLESPOONS of Sweetner and not 3 Teaspoon? I am going to try this again once I get myself some more ingrediants, because both my hubby and I have a sweet tooth but this recipe was far to sweet for us to eat, it was more like honey with an acidic kick in the back of your throat!!!
 
I only use 1 tablespoon of sweetener, seems to be enough :)

Also it seems to taste nicer once it's been cooked again with the chicken.

Yes thats exactly what i was thinking of doing next time around, or maybe add it in at the end gradually and keep tasting it until i get the sweetness that we like.:)

Perfect ;-)

I have just made this and it is absolutely gorgeous!!! Thank you for sharing it. I made a double batch and reduced it down for about 25 mins to get a thicker consistency. Is it still syn free when it's been reduced down more? I am going to grate in a little horseradish when I make it again. It's growing wild in my garden and I love the taste of it. If you haven't given this recipe a go yet then do. It's delicious :)

I once made it without any sweetner because I forgot to put it in lol It was lovely as well

Instead of the chilli powder I use crushed chillies. I dont like cumin and thats in chilli powder so I just adapted the recipe slightly for my own personal taste. And I put loads in as I like it hot! Having it tonight for tea over chicken breast, syn free wedges, and mushrooms on a red day! Wedges are an HEB. Cant wait. Yum
 
I made this to go with spaghetti and meatballs and it was delicious when i tasted it while it was cooking. I left tea and went out for a few hours to return to find the whole batch had been scoffed by the fam, i made double as well!!!

You could do so many things with it as well, TY!!!

I'm very excited by this - once I get paid and can afford to buy more food (not just use up what's in the cupboard) I'll definitely be trying this with a hunter's chicken!

Thanks
 
Had this last night. My man did chicken breasts stuffed with cheese and garlic, serve with stir fry veg and mash and I defrosted a portion of BBQ sauce to top the chicken :) nom nom nom xx
