Hi Guga I am from South Africa and we often cook chicken in Coke. I normally boil the chicken in the Coke, then remove it and immediately throw in some potatoes to boil in the leftover Coke the chicken was boiled with. After that you can pour some Coke in a pan and reduce it until it becomes a nice sticky sauce. Then I put all the Coke boiled chicken pieces in a oven pan. Add the potatoes and some seasonal veggies and pour over that reduced Coke sticky sauce and wack in the oven with the grill function on and when nice and golden and sticky take it out. Enjoy it just like that or with some basmati rice... Its DELICIOUS!!!

I cook chicken in Coca Cola every month. My mom taught me how to do it. I highly recommend it. I use tomato paste and some seasoning.

Wow this video unlocked an old memory of mine. Back in the day when I was a sous chef I had a chef show me a recipe that this video reminded me of. We reduced a 2 liter of Coca Cola with a handle of Captain Morgan rum with onion, garlic, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and cilantro. We reduce it until it's thick like a syrup and then we add it to a sous vide bag with pork butt and cook it low and slow until it's super tender. Once it's all tender you can eat it like pulled pork, or throw it on a flat top grill and get it all crispy and caramelize the sugars a little bit. At first I was skeptical but it was honestly so good. I think I'm going to braise some chicken thighs in a Coca Cola/Soy Sauce type situation soon. Thanks for the inspiration Guga!

I like the bit of a sweet taste, not as sweet as barbecue, but just enough for flavor, and it always comes out tender and juicy.

Hi Guga. Here is a video idea for you. I recently learned that snacks that use MSG sometimes also contain Disodium Inosinate and Disodium Guanylate to enhance the effect of MSG by 20x-30x stronger (for example, Doritos, Pringles, etc). I'm not sure what ratio/blend of MSG, DSI, and DSG is needed, but I'm sure you can find it somewhere. America's Test Kitchen + Kenji Lopez Alt have a video that discusses some of the science behind it. I was thinking the experiment could be this: 1. Steak + SPG (control) 2. Steak + SPG + MSG 3. Steak + SPG + MSG + DSI + DSG Since the MSG, DSI, and DSG has sodium in it, the salt in the SPG might need to be reduced a bit, but it's up to you. Anyways, I hope you give it a shot!

Chicken 'n' coke, a certified hood classic

I can't say I've ever seen poultry boiled in Coke, but I have seen Coca-Cola chicken where the Coke is used to make a sauce for chicken. I've also slow-cooked with root beer, which I suppose is the same concept as what you did, without the burnt sugar issue. Soy sauce boiled chicken is always going to have more flavor though, because salt is a natural flavor enhancer and Coke just doesn't have close to the sodium levels of soy sauce (~37 mg sodium per cup of Coke vs 14,000 mg sodium per cup soy sauce). Maybe instead of adding brown sugar like you did to the Coke, add salt? I mean, there was already more than enough sugar in the Coke as it is, and you could probably add enough salt to act as a flavor enhancer without making it taste salty.

ALWAYS 💕 the science experiments Guga!

My family marinades chicken in coke and has for years. Makes the chicken so sweet and tender its incredible.

Over here in Ireland and the UK a very popular dish is coca cola chicken and for a lower calorie version, diet cola chicken and it is delicious. You can also make a quick sweet and sour sauce recipe with orange soda or cola (and diet version for lower calorie) and garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar and pineapple pieces (you can even leave those out and it is still a great, quick version). Much simpler than making a sweet and sour sauce from scratch and way easier to balance the sweet and sour taste.

I've had beef cooked with cola a few times (braised I think), but not chicken. It works surprisingly well as a base flavor, although a touch too sweet for my tastes. It worked better as a small dish rather than main course, a whole meal of it was a bit much for me.

Wonderful!!! Thanks for all your hard work. My friends and family absolutely love your channel. ❤️🙏🏽❤️👍👌🏾❤️

I make coke cola ham at Christmas, but I have to make it at Easter as well now my children have gotten older, as well as Aunts and Uncles who love it, I boil it with brown sugar, onions, carrots etc, then take it out and put it in the oven so it’s perfect, the liquid left from my boil is reduced to a thick sauce and poured over the ham, remember to remove the black stuff that rises while boiling, just skim it every so often.

This is actually one way we have our chicken bento box in Taiwan. Gooey skin but super flavorful to go with rice.. super yummy

I feel like this was an unfair comparison. Coca Cola only really has the Caramel Flavoring going for it. It isn't a Complex Flavor. Soy Sauce on the other hand is full of Umami. When used in cooking, it is a Complex Flavor. It also has Salt, which helps improve the flavor. The Coke, doesn't have enough salt. Even though your rub contains salt, there isn't enough salt in Coke to not wash out the salt in your rub. I feel if you had replaced the Brown Sugar in the Coke Boil with a decent amount of Salt, your results would be very different.

My mom always cooked our Christmas ham with Coke, pineapple, and cloves. Super unique flavor, but it’s really good.

in korea we use soda to soften the meat a lot. my fam uses coke for bulgoki.

Quick AND fast side-dish?! That's ludicrous speed! :O

The Coca Cola is best used when you reduce it to get all the sugar from it. You also needed to salt it more so it probably was bland. Definitely could have gone a lot better.

Or a dry aging method? Or a marinade when putting into sous vide? I'd be interested to see if you're down for trying, Guga.🤔

Hi Guga !

In china coke chicken wing is a very popular dish lol

Both good options, a small additional step of marinating the chickens would really improve the depth of flavor! I knew the cola one had promise, one of my favorite holiday recipes involves baking a ham in cola, brown sugar, and spices, always tasty!

My grandma does something similar with coke and ham at Christmas. It's honestly not bad.

Hey Guga, thanks for your great videos. After watching your videos, I have three requests for future videos: - Please try some other cattle breeds than wagyu and American beef. - How do you clean all your pans and other cooking ustensils so they continue to be so shiny ? - Please cook a foie gras in a terrine using sous vide. And yes I'll repeat those requests often. ;)

Guga in 2025 be like: I dry aged my nephew Angel in sugar for 30 days and this happend!

Coca Cola, garlic, ginger and some very basic asian spice mix (usualy something from thailand because that's easier for me to find where I live) is like my go to marinade for barbeque, it's great! I'm with Angel, Coca Cola can be used to great benefit in cooking!

You got me motivated I'm going to boil one in orange juice

Gah damn, that’s delicious!

A street vendor near my campus actually sell these and it was pretty delicious although the place was dirty and suspicious. Great video btw love the fried egg preparation!

Listening to the guy speak is just satisfying for some reason.

I’ve never noticed that when he lists ingredients he says them like he isn’t sure. Like it’s a question. Now I can’t unhear it 😂😂😂😂

Been marinating steak in coke for years, makes the meat super tender.

Yup tender and extremely sugary and unhealthy good luck with your analysis

His voice when he was saying what ingredients he was putting in just kept getting higher and higher😂😂

Guga is a genius. I feel Angel brings the level of this channel down. Guga is worthy of his own show & to go all the way.

Can you fry chicken in chilli oil?

Guga sou Brasileiro e adoro seus vídeos vida longa ai chefe!!!!!!

i've always used coca cola to finish the chicken/turkey in the oven. Not as much as to dipping the whole thing but as a way to add moisture

I cooked beef steak with coke before when I forgotten to buy cooking oil

Last time, guga thought papaya seeds looked like pepper so he used em on steaks. Now, since soy sauce and coke got the same colour, he boiled em in it. 💀 Next up, nuclear waste turned into compound butter?

Guga, meu rei, você deveria fazer um vídeo com o Vicenzo's Plate. O que você manja de carne, ele manja de pasta (massa), ia ficar foda um colab.

Cooking chicken with coke (the soft drink) is quite popular in Hong Kong as well. And regarding to how soy sauce is more expensive than coke, no we don't just use soy sauce but usually mix it with water so you can't just compare them like that. And they taste, pretty obviously, different and give you a different flavour.

8:18 goofy super villain Guga xD

So what would chicken boiled in beef broth taste like lol
