Diet coke chicken with frozen chicken

I want to do diet coke chicken tonight in my actifry but the chicken iv got is cook straight from frozen. Do you think i can throw the frozen chicken pieces and sauce into the actifry and cook for 30mins and it'll turn out right?

I've no idea, sorry, I don't have an actifry; you could give it a go.

Never tried it in the actifry but I think you'd be better doing it in a pan. I think it would take ages to reduce in the actifry and would leave it in a right mess!

There is a huge existing thread about Diet Coke Chicken in the recipe section-you'd be best off posting in there

Agree with above post, but just to add that I have tried diet coke gammon in the slow cooker and it did not work - the sauce did not thicken. It works best on the hob and really boil it to reduce the sauce. x

Don't try it. It says in the manual that it's not designed for liquids, and I definitely think diet coke counts as liquid! It'll flow all through the hole in the middle for the paddle and then into all the bits at the bottom.

I'm sure simmering is different to frying? Hence the actiFRY

The best diet coke chicken I made was when I left the mixture in the pan boiling to answer the door - took longer than I expected and when I came back the kitchen was all steamed up, the sauce was a sticky goo all over the chicken, it was the best I have made todate, you really need to have it on a hot heat for at least 20 mins to get the desired sticky sauce, in the past I dont think that I left it long enough

But you can make pasta sauce in it and that is liquid and simmering. Did it last week from the recipe leaflet and it was LUSH
