Ok, I know you're going to think it's absolutely FOUL after reading the description. All I ask is that you try making it, just once. If it isn't the best chicken recipe you've ever tried, I'll be surprised!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1 cup Coca-Cola (Pepsi will ruin it!)
- 3.5 pounds of chicken, quartered
HOW TO MAKE:
1.) In a large bowl, whisk together the ketchup and coke until thoroughly mixed. Wash the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Remove the wings from the chicken breast quarters. Put all of the chicken pieces in the bowl and toss so that the chicken is coated with the ketchup-cola mixture. Let sit refrigerated for at least 4 hours (even better, let it sit overnight!).
2.) Preheat oven to 350-degrees (or preferred, cook on the BBQ!).
3.) Remove the chicken, reserve the marinade. Place the chicken, skin side up, on a rimmed backing sheet. Sprinkle chicken with salt and freshly ground pepper. Back for 1 hour. Meanwhile, put the marinade in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the marinade is reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. During baking, baste the chicken with the reduced marinade several times using a pastry brush. After 30 minutes, transfer the chicken to a plate, pour off the fat, and return chicken to the pan. Continue cooking 30 minutes.
4.) When chicken is done, transfer to a platter. Drizzle with more warm marinade, serving any extra on the side. Makes 4 finger-licking servings.
