Diet Cola Chicken My Way image

The proverbial statement "You know you are a Weight Watcher when..." could easily be completed with you have heard of or tried chicken simmered in a sauce made of equal parts ketchup and diet cola. While I love the dish for it's simplicity, I find it too sweet for my tastes. Inspired by Recipe #219157 and the addition of onions to add a savory note, I decided to play with the classic and developed this version. Though there are a few more ingredients, it is just as easy to prepare as the original. (WW 4 points per serving and Core)

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 (4 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
12 ounces diet cola (I use diet Pepsi)
1 cup ketchup
2/3 cup finely diced red onions or 2/3 cup yellow onion
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • Mix together the ketchup, diet cola, vinegar, hot sauce and onions in a large skillet. Add the chicken breasts and bring the sauce to a boil over medium high heat.
  • Reduce to a simmer and cook for 50 minutes, until the chicken is tender enough to split with a fork. The sauce will be reduced by half and quite rich and thick.
  • Serve each breast with a quarter of the sauce.
