DIET COLA CHICKEN MY WAY
The proverbial statement "You know you are a Weight Watcher when..." could easily be completed with you have heard of or tried chicken simmered in a sauce made of equal parts ketchup and diet cola. While I love the dish for it's simplicity, I find it too sweet for my tastes. Inspired by Recipe #219157 and the addition of onions to add a savory note, I decided to play with the classic and developed this version. Though there are a few more ingredients, it is just as easy to prepare as the original. (WW 4 points per serving and Core)

Steps:
- Mix together the ketchup, diet cola, vinegar, hot sauce and onions in a large skillet. Add the chicken breasts and bring the sauce to a boil over medium high heat.
- Reduce to a simmer and cook for 50 minutes, until the chicken is tender enough to split with a fork. The sauce will be reduced by half and quite rich and thick.
- Serve each breast with a quarter of the sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken or chicken breasts for best results.
- Use a large pot: A large pot will help to prevent the chicken from overcrowding and ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Add the chicken to the pot first: This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pot.
- Cover the chicken with the Diet Coke: Make sure that the chicken is completely covered by the Diet Coke.
- Bring the Diet Coke to a boil: Once the Diet Coke has been added, bring it to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat to low: Once the Diet Coke has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer the chicken for 1 hour, or until it is cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the pot: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and set it aside to cool slightly.
- Shred the chicken: Use two forks to shred the chicken into small pieces.
- Add the chicken to the sauce: Add the shredded chicken to the sauce and stir to combine.
- Serve the chicken: Serve the chicken over rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish.
Conclusion:
Diet Coke chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The Diet Coke helps to tenderize the chicken and gives it a slightly sweet flavor. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a potluck dinner.
