Hi, I have a recipe for chicken salad, I’m suppose to boil the chicken in apple cider. I’m on extended induction. I know the chicken will absorb some of the cider, but will it make that big of difference in the carb count? I know I can't have fruit yet, but what about cooking in it? Thanks!

Re: Apple Cider ? ? ?
There was a thread about carbs "leaking" into other foods. The example given was cooking potatoes in soup and how the soup gets thicker (this is the potato "leaking"). I would assume the same thing would happen with the apple cider.
I would boil the chicken in water to be safe.

Apple cider vinegar would be safe, but I would not boil the chicken in apple juice. The only reason to do that would be to have the chicken take on the flavor of the apple juice. Guess what in that the flavor would also be the fructose as well!Kent - 35-M-6'4"

Hey Guys,
Thanks for your replies. I was hopping it would be okay to cook the chicken in apple cider/juice. I guess I'll just have to pass the chicken salad recipie up for a while longer.
