It was amazing! Also put spring onion and mushrooms in with the chicken and sauce and served it with stir fry veg was lush!

 

[Lynne2809]

Glad that you liked it and the way you served it does sound fab, think I may have to steal your idea and do it for tea tomorrow.

I had diet coke chicken drumsticks last week and as I had some passata left over from that, the next night for dinner I had diet coke prawns! Nom nom!!!

Hi everyone, have done this recipe loads and love it. The trick is to keep boiling the diet coke and passata on a high heat for about half an hour, it does thicken up and is yummy. I serve with either sw chips or rice.

Making this tonight, but i forgot the passata, does it still work without it? x

Ermm it might do, but would end up as more of a glaze than a sauce I guess x

I have used a tin of blended tomatoes instead of passata and it worked, if you have a tin!

 

[parfittaroles]

Or blended baked beans!

 

[mia_angel]

Just trying it now, as i dont have any tin tomatoes or ketchup! Added smoked paprika and dark soy sauce....tastes lovely, waiting for sauce to thicken

[mia_angel]

Ive made this twice now 1st time was lovely 2nd time i used pepsi max cause i had it in the fridge and it was not the same think the flavour is from the diet coke.

I always cook the chicken first, not shove it all in together. I put balsamic vinegar and chinese spice in. I never bother with chicken fillets, just buy cheap drumsticks, cook them and scrape the meat off, much cheaper

I make diet coke chicken at least 3 times a week.
Heres how I do it...

After cooking off the meat I add 6tbsp of passata, 3 tbs soy sauce, 5 tsp chinese 5 spice, garlic and then 6tbs sweetener. Then cover it with the cola!

I rarely use branded cola and it still works fine for me. I think the sweetener has a big part to play in it

Has anyone used diet pepsi for this and if so how dos it taste?

 

[Insaniti]

I have used Pepsi max and coke zero before and can't tell a difference tbh

 

[Geordiehelen]
