When I first did this I told him it was a sauce made with coke, he said he would have something else as he'd not like it!! As I munched away he said "it actually looks nice" to which I replied "it is nice, very nice" he then tried some and proceed to finish off the portion I was going to have the next day, now if I've not made it for a week or so hes actually asking for it!

Diet Coke Chicken HELP
Please can anyone help me, I've tried making diet coke chicken but I just can't get the 'coke' to go syrupy
I'm I doing something wrong, I'm I expecting too much.
I put all the ingredients in a pan & cook away bubbling the sauce.
My sister is coming for tea tonight & I'd like to make a quorn version, with SW chips, carrots & swede

Well when I do it, all the coke disappears and there is a coating of it all over the chicken, do you simmer it, I bring to the boil then simmer till it has all gone.

Erm no
I was expecting it to go 'syrupy' with a little sauce; I do bring it to boil & then simmer.

I'd try it with 'real' coke but we don't drink fizzy drinks so this was bought in especially for 'diet coke' chicken
Maybe I'll try again with real coke, my DS said maybe it had something to do with the lack of sugar.
Well no matter how it turns out that is what tea is tonight

I wouldn't even know how many syns in real coke I've never been a lover of fizzy drinks, I prefer cordial (or wine).
Well last nights was better than previous attempts, my sister was plesantly surprised how nice it tasted.

Theres a thread in the recipe section,l only go on Minimins on my phone though,so don't know if its any different though, anyway theres a few different variations, l use diet coke and equal quantity of passatta, l whizz up a couple of onions chilli garlic,chinese seasoning,bit of ginger,paprika add to coke n passatta and boil till its as thick as you want it,Ive had it with grilled quorn sausage, but lm sure you could add quorn pieces or chicken pieces, its delish and the sauce could be used with beef pork anything really. Sorry not much help quantities but mine varies each time make,but a recipe

Thank you, I did do a search before I posted & there were sooooooooo many 'diet coke' posts, I must admit I didn't read them
I'll sort of fancy trying it with passata.

Ignore me Ive obviously got it wrong. I did read a thread somewhere where they were saying it didnt work with some sorts of Coke, but obviously a diet coke one had to work with diet Coke. Sorry, youll have to search around as this has definitely come up before.
