COLA CHICKEN

COLA CHICKEN 1 can (12oz) cola (regular or diet) 1/2 cup ketchup 1/2 small onion , chopped 1 clove garlic , minced 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard pepper to taste 1 tablespoon olive oil 8 skinless bone-in chicken thighs and/or drumsticks Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook just until browned on each side (about 5 minutes). Combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Pour over chicken and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and cover. Simmer 15 minutes. Remove lid, and simmer an additional 30-35 minutes turning chicken occasionally until chicken is cooked through and has reached 180 degrees. Serve with rice and steamed veggies. Note: If you’d like a thicker sauce, once the chicken is cooked, remove from the pan and set aside. Make a slurry of 1/3 cup water and 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Bring sauce to a boil and while whisking, pour in a bit of the slurry at a time to reach desired consistency (you may not need all of it). Allow to boil 1 minute and toss with chicken.
