Serve with steamed rice or crispy fries for a complete meal.
Garnish with extra sliced green onions for a fresh finish.
Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat gently to preserve the glaze.
Variations:
Add a splash of soy sauce or chili flakes for a savory or spicy kick.
Substitute garlic with garlic powder for a milder flavor.
Use Coke Zero or another cola for a slightly different taste, but avoid diet versions to ensure proper caramelization.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use diet soda instead of regular Coca-Cola?
A: Regular Coca-Cola is recommended for its sugar content, which caramelizes and creates the glaze. Diet sodas lack sugar and won’t produce the same effect.
Q: Will the chicken stay crispy after cooking in Coca-Cola?
A: The glaze adds a sticky coating but the chicken retains some crispiness, especially if added just before serving.
Q: Can I prepare this dish ahead of time?
A: It’s best served fresh, but you can prepare the glaze in advance and reheat with fried chicken when ready to serve.
