Ingredients

  • 1.5 pound Boneless, skinless chicken thighs or chicken breast
  • 1/3 cup Fire cider vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • Spent fire cider veggies and herbs  (leftover fire cider herbs and veggies)
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt, or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper, or to taste

Optional Sautéed Apples

  • 2 Apples, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup optional

Instructions

  • Season each chicken breast with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cover the chicken with the leftover fire cider veggies and herbs, plus 1/3 cup of fire cider tonic.
  • Marinate for at least 2 hours, or cover and refrigerate overnight. I recommend marinating the chicken overnight to help tenderize the chicken and give it deep flavor.
  • Heat up a grill, grill pan, or cast iron to medium high-heat. When it's hot, lightly oil the pan and add the chicken. Cook it for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink inside. (and internal temperature reaches at least 165°F)
  • Add a tablespoon or two of fire cider vinegar to the pan while the chicken cooks to add extra flavor (or baste the chicken). Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet, put it on a plate and lightly cover it with foil.
  • OPTIONAL: Carefully wipe out the pan with a clean cloth. Add the sliced apples to the skillet and sauté until soft about 3 to 5 minutes with a couple tablespoons of water, add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup optional cook for an additional minute.
  • Add the chicken back into the skillet and cook for 1-2 more minutes to marry the flavors. Season with a pinch of salt and a few sprigs of thyme. Serve and Enjoy!
