Ok, had another go at this tonight cos it had been going wrong recently. I cooked the chicken first, transferred it to a saucepan and puts loads and loads of diet coke in out of a new bottle with some chinese 5 spice- a pound from in-store. well it was beautiful, loads of sticky sauce. I think the reason it had been going wrong was i was not adding enough coke, I put lots in and it took a while to boil down but was well worth the wait. i was wondering what else people cook in sugar free drink and what drinks you use? Would lemon fanta taste good with chicken?
 
I made a bad batch the other day, i think cos I added frozen veg to it! Thanks for the idea of making it separately, don't know why it just didnt enter my head!

Why not give it a try? If you are making it in a fresh pan with nothing else then you wont be spoiling anything if you dont like it
 
I use Quorn peices & Diet Irn Bru. Lovely....very 'sweet 'n' sour'!
 
I tried this the other night, was lushh- left some residue on my pan a bit which took a bit of scrubbing but that may have been from me burning it a bit!
 
when i tried it the coke just disapeared no sticky bit lol what did i do wrong?
 
We made a ham in diet coke for a xmas party and it was lovely, you boil the ham in water first then drain it and add the coke leaving it for hours.
 
Ohh iron bru sounds lovely with it. I used to do the ham thing except with fanta. Was lovely x
