Diet Cola Chicken Recipe...Yummy!!!!

I found this recipe, I can't remember where, but I thought I would pass it along.

4 (4oz) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
12 oz Diet Cola (I used Diet Coke)
1 cup ketchup
2/3 cup finely chopped onion
2 tsp cider vinegar
1/4 tsp hot sauce

Mix together the ketchup, diet cola, vinegar, hot sauce and onions in a large skillet.  Add the chicken breasts and bring sauce to a boil over medium-high heat.  reduce to a simmer and cook for 50 mins, until the chicken is tender enough to split with a fork.  The sauce will reduce by half and be thicker.  Serve each breast with a quarter of the sauce.

*I used Diet Coke, but next time I'm going to try Diet Dr. Pepper.  I also used minced onion because that's what I had on hand.  After the sauce came to a boil I turned the chicken a couple of times because the chicken was thicker.  I don't know if it made a difference or not.  This was REALLY good!  Enjoy!

    I've made this with diet dr pepper , it is yummy. I no longer eat it though. I used to drink alot of soda , diet and regular , before surgery. My diet plan does not include soda at all anymore , so I just dont tempt Myself by keeping it around.

The carbonation would cook out so I think you would be okay to use for something like this.  I would just be concerned about the sugar and salt in the ketchup.

I do soda every now and then, but it has to be a fountain soda because it has less carbonation.  I had to ask my mom to bring me a can of Diet Coke LOL  

Thanks for posting this. I'm going to try it soon.

If you are looking for a Chinese twist, try adding a diet Orange soda. 
I made it before surgery, really, really good!
