This delicious Diet Coke Chicken recipe is ready in under an hour and serves four people. Diet Coke adds a sweet flavour and a gooey texture along with soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce to create a hearty dinner. Loaded with vegetables including red, yellow and green peppers, this dish is a healthy and filling option.
If you’re also looking to shake up your meal routine, try some new ingredients and maybe reintroduce some key nutrients that may have taken a back seat as priorities have shifted in light of the pandemic, you might want to try some of these weight loss recipes.
Diet Coca-Cola Chicken or Diet Pepsi Chicken
You can use either Pepsi, Coca-Cola, or a store-brand brand, you don’t have to be specific, they’ll both do the job.
But what if you want to avoid foods that contain aspartame? Unfortunately, most diet drinks contain aspartame as an ingredient, and there are some that contain stevia, but it’s hard to get everywhere.
So if you prefer regular cola for this popular recipe, don’t be afraid to switch. A can of regular cola only costs about 7 cents per can (it varies depending on the brand you use), so once you break it down into a recipe that serves 4, it’ll only be about 2 cents per person, which is a pretty small amount.
Diet Coca-Cola Chicken in a Slow Cooker
This recipe also works well in a slow cooker for a roasted chicken or pork roast. I recommend adding a little smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.
Since you don’t do the reducing method like you would on the stove, if you want a really thick sauce, you can take the pork or chicken out after it’s cooked, shred it with a fork and then add the sauce to a pot to reduce until it’s thick. Before mixing the sauce with the shredded meat. Perfect!!
Or leaving the lid slightly open for the last hour also works
