Budget Minded Recipes





COLA CHICKEN


(And more variations of recipe)


(My favorite: Wings or Ribs)





4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts


1 cup catsup


1 12oz. can cola (pepsi, coke, etc.)





Put chicken in a non-stick pan.


Mix together catsup and cola, pour over chicken.


Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook 45 minutes.


(turning chicken a few times, while cooking...to prevent from


sticking to pan)


Uncover, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the sauce


becomes thick and adheres to the chicken.


It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce. Yummmm!





You can double the recipe and use more pieces of


chicken....wings...would be ideal...add some hot


sauce....presto ';Hot


Wings';!


I have used Ribs, just as good.





I tried this recipe with 'meatballs'....was equally


as good...served over rice.





I found another variation.....omit the catsup and add a small


jar of Salsa (any variety).





I have tried using Salsa (omitting the catsup....not).


You'd think a recipe with only '3' ingredients couldn't be


messed up....wouldn't you??


Well...while I was preparing to fix the 'Cola Chicken' recipe


using Salsa.....I was also trying to carry on a conversation with my


husband...(just proves...I can't do two things at once)....mixed


Salsa %26amp; Catsup (before I realized I was supposed to leave out


the catsup) %26amp; Cola........still turned out really tasty (to me)...might


be a little sweeter than some of you like.





I fixed chicken wings, (using the above recipe)


but...I added the spices from a MILD (I don't care for ';HOT';) Buffalo Wings packet...(the kind you get to bake in the oven).....I thought it was really good.....(but you/I can't find a 'bad' way to fix chicken).





Finally....!! I fixed the 'SALSA' chicken......that's good , too.





Another (bright)idea.....I thought of trying......replace the


catsup with a bottle of Shrimp Cocktail Sauce...and add a bag of (pop corn) shrimp.....!


Fixed the shrimp with cocktail sauce......eh...wasn't all that


great...was OK...probably won't be fixing it again.





Also tried beef stew cuts......that was pretty good.....I can see


myself making this again.


Served both over rice.....think the stew cuts would have been just as


good over noodles.





How about using the little cocktail wieners/sausages?





Gonna try some butterfly cut pork chops鈥?boneless pork chops鈥?.pork steak.

start with these or check out the website I found these at.
chicken breast cut into chunky strips, choose whatever seasoning you want, IE: tikka,american barbeque(must be a powder form,no sauce) sprinkle lightly over chicken, then roll chicken in desicated coconut (get it in Julian graves,or supermarket) put it under the grill for a minute or so each side. Its healthy, better than batter/breadcrums, its light in calories %26amp; it goes with anything. IE: rustic chips(skin on) rice, pasta, salad, anything really! My 18mnth old LOVES it x
