Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cola, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. Arrange them in a 9x13-inch baking dish. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the cola mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the dish tightly with a lid or aluminum foil. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork, approximately 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). (50 minutes)

06

Step

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld and the juices to redistribute. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a minced clove of garlic or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cola mixture.
Serve the Cola Chicken over rice, mashed potatoes, or quinoa to soak up the delicious sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can simmer the remaining sauce in a saucepan over medium heat after baking, until it reaches your desired consistency.

  • Kacey Hirthe

    I found that the chicken was a bit dry, even though I followed the recipe exactly. Maybe I overbaked it.

  • Maryam Kuhlman

    The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the ketchup next time.

  • Buster Pacocha

    I was skeptical, but this was surprisingly delicious! Will definitely make again.
