Home-cooking Experiment - Clay-pot COKE Chicken

Claypot Coke Chicken
Here is chicken dish that me and my aunt experimented after having to watch MasterChef Australia when Food Critic Matt Preston had a Master Class with the contestants. He showed and easy oven baked sticky wings which had the ingredient of COKE in it. With that inspiration, my aunt and i decided to try but with a asian twist of having to add other forms of seasoning like oyster sauce, sesame oil, Chinese wine, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and chilli. Nearly 3/4 of a can of regular COKE was used for the dish. Overall, we were astounded by the outcome as it tasted pretty good as it was slightly sweet due to the coke and with savouriness from the other seasonings the sauce was just the right consistency as it coated the wings nicely. the ginger, garlic and chilli gives the sauce a slight kick in terms of spiciness and the asian flavours. the meat on the other hand was quite moist and tender with the flavours being penetrated in to the chickenTo finish off, the spring onions chopped to lift the dish in terms of the appearance. Overall, me and my aunt were satisfied and it's definitely a dish worth the try and also a dish that goes well with a nice bowl of steamed rice!
