How to Make Coca Cola Chicken Plus

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup apricot jam (or your favorite!), 1/2 cup ketchup, 1 cup Coca-Cola, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 packet onion soup mix.
  3. Place 2 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (or 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts) in a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish.
  4. Pour the Coca-Cola mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated.
  5. Cover the casserole dish with foil or a lid.
  6. Bake for 1 hour.
  7. Remove the foil or lid and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  8. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
