BBQ Sauce

Barbecue sauce and chicken is a classic combination, but it might be something you avoid if you're watching your sugar intake. So you'll be pleased to know we have a fab sugar free BBQ sauce recipe for you to try - all the flavor, none of the guilt!

Sweet Chili Sauce

Sweet, sour and spicy flavors are a winning combination. Using store-bought sweet chili sauce is a quick and easy option for a busy weeknight, but - if you have the time - it's worth trying your hand at making your own!

Just assemble:

• 1/4 cup rice vinegar
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 tablespoon sambal oelek (a mixture of red chilis and vinegar - find it in the international foods aisle)
• 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon water

1. Add the first 4 ingredients to a small saucepan and heat over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
2. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tablespoon water.
3. Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan and continue to cook, stirring, until thickened.

Store any leftovers in the fridge, where they will last for up to a week.

Happy dipping!
