Cola chicken chunks, a beloved dish blending sweetness and savory flavors, is easy to make with just a few ingredients. Here’s a simple guide to recreate this crowd-pleaser.
Ingredients:
- 500g chicken thigh, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 can (330ml) cola (regular or diet)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar (optional, if using regular cola)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish (optional)
Steps:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix chicken pieces with 2 tablespoons soy sauce, oyster sauce, and minced garlic. Let it sit for 20 minutes.
2. Sear the Chicken: Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear until golden on all sides (about 3-4 minutes).
3. Simmer with Cola: Pour the cola into the pan, ensuring it covers about half the chicken. Add the remaining soy sauce and sugar (if using). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
4. Cook Until Tender: Simmer for 25-30 minutes, occasionally flipping the chicken, until the sauce thickens and coats the pieces. The cola will caramelize, creating a glossy glaze.
5. Garnish and Serve: Transfer to a plate, sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve hot with rice or noodles.
This dish requires minimal effort but delivers maximum flavor—perfect for busy weeknights or family dinners!
