I've also been told of a variation to the recipe which involves using diet fanta instead of the coke to make a sweet and sour style sauce (and also adding fresh pineapple at the very end to make it more authentic) Given the success of yesterday's recipe, I intend to try the diet fanta chicken very soon too.
Ingredients
(Syn free on all plans)
2 chicken breasts
1 can diet coke
100ml passata
1 large onion, diced
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
Method
- Chop the chicken into bite size pieces
- Spray a non-stick pan with fry light and stir fry and onion and chicken until cooked
- Add the diet coke, passata and worcestershire sauce
- Cook over a low heat for about 15-20 minutes until the sauce has thickened
- Serve with a fresh salad and either rice or potato wedges
I wondered what the soft drink was meant to do when you Twittered about making this. Now I know.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear your making great progress with the new regimen.

How do you make diet fanta chicken? Do you still use passata? As i would imagine that would still give a tomato flavour to it?? Karen
ReplyDeleteHi Karen,
ReplyDeleteYou make the Diet Fanta chicken in much the same way - I used soy sauce instead of worcestershire sauce though, and also added some ginger, and stir fry veg. I still used the passata, and it didn't particularly taste too tomatoey. It was delicious, and in actual fact I may prefer it to the diet coke version.
