- After 10 minutes take the pot off the heat and shred the chicken meat with 2 forks
- Return to the heat, add apples, sweet potato, jam and vinegar then cover
- If the chicken mixture is too dry, add another cup of water so that the vegetables and apples can soften

- When apples and sweet potato are soft, mash with a fork
- The sweet potato thickens the sauce
