Sticky Cola Chick'n 🥤 (Naughty Vegan Fakeaway Recipe)

This recipe is a seriously tasty one and will leave you wondering why you haven’t tried something like this before. The crispy coating on the chicken absorbs the sauce perfectly giving you a satisfying cola crunch.
Serve this on a bed of fluffy rice or just have it as little “wings”, whatever you choose we know you’re going to love it.
Yes, this recipe isn't a healthy one, but it's a great one to treat yourself with on the odd occasion! We gobbled these crispy morsels up in no time.
Ingredients:
For the Chick’n:
300g vegan chicken pieces
250ml plant-based milk (we used oat milk)
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
120g plain flour
1 tbsp Chinese five-spice
1 tsp salt
25g corn flakes
Oil for frying
For the sauce
1 tbsp vegetable oil
3 spring onions
2 inches ginger
1 clove garlic
1 tsp Chinese five-spice
Pinch chilli flakes
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 can cola
To Serve:
1 bag microwavable basmati rice
1 tbsp sesame seeds
Before you start
Wok | Fine grater | Sauce pan | Plate lined with kitchen roll | Baking tray | Preheat oven to 160°C
Method
Prepare the sauce ingredients | Trim and finely slice the spring onions | Peel and grate the ginger and garlic | Set to one side
Batter the chick’n | Add the plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar to a mixing bowl, stir to combine and leave to rest for 3-4 minutes | Put the chick’n pieces in the bowl of plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar, fold to coat and marinate for 5 minutes
Bread the chick’n | Add the plain flour, Chinese five-spice and salt to another mixing bowl and stir to combine | Spoon the chick’n pieces into bowl of flour, toss to coat, remove from the bowl and set to one side | Crush the corn flakes into the bowl of flour and toss to combine | Dip the chick’n pieces into the plant-based milk, transfer them to the bowl of flour and corn flakes and toss to combine and coat completely
Fry the chick’n | Warm 2 inches of vegetable oil in the base of wok to frying temperature (180*C) or until the end of a wooden spoon bubbles) | Add a small batch of the chick’n pieces to the wok and fry until crispy and golden - turn the pieces to ensure an even cook | Use a slotted metal spoon to transfer the fried chick’n pieces to the kitchen roll lined plate and repeat until all the chick’n is cooked | Transfer the chick’n to a baking tray and put the tray in the oven to keep the chick’n warm
Make the sauce | Warm the vegetable oil in a pan over a medium heat | Add the spring onions (saving a few green slices for garnish), ginger and garlic to the pan and stir for 1 minute | Add the Chinese five-spice and soy sauce to the pan and stir for 30 seconds | Add a pinch of chilli flakes to the pan and stir to combine | Add the cola to the pan, turn up the heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes until it reaches a saucy, sticky consistency | Reduce the heat to a very gentle simmer
Prepare to serve | Cook the rice according to packet instructions | Spoon the rice into two serving bowls | Add the chick’n pieces to the sauce and toss to coat | Transfer the chick’n to the bowls, garnish with spring onions, sesame seeds and serve immediately
Serves 2

Yammy!

[@zsofiathompson7501]

I used jackfruit, it was a big hit! Thank you!

[@ridgleyhawthorne715]

I have started to watch your videos & today got lured to the comment section here about this recipe. It looks so Awesomely good! I like the easy of how it looks to make up, the flavor factor, & I can see the ease of how to adjust the spice heat per own taste preferences. 🌶💥 😳🥵?....🤔?..🌶😋!! ...Anyway, I really look forward to watching more of your videos & subscribing. (Hi !👋🏻😋☺).

You always take us to Flavour Town!! Thanks! Can’t wait to try this!

[@lizzimia5479]

I made this and forgot I had no corn flakes, so I used rice crispies 🤣 then my five spice ran out - so I only had enough for the batter. 🤦‍♀️ Sadly I didn’t actually taste the cola in the end - but I did enjoy it, especially the texture of the fried pieces. I think the vegan chicken itself or maybe the soy has overridden the Coke flavour. 😭

Looks absolutely delicious from Bernadette

[@jonbentoman9823]

Definitely need to revisit this one because it didn't work out the first time I made it...😊😊😊😊😊 I think the two reasons why it didn't work for the first was; 1. The brand of vegan chick'n wasn't really that good turning it into something terrible, and 2. Didn't have enough cola because it went flat even though I never opened it. ...🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 Anyway bon appetit and have a fantastic Friday afternoon and a safe healthy 2022 despite the pandemic that is hanging around unfortunately.... - Ben from Southwest Florida

The sound is too low

[@AR-kf8dr]

What brand are those chicken pieces?

[@helenw495]

Well it's not chicken, and actually that I find annoying. The recipe sounds delicious, but please stop referring to something that is clearly not chicken!

[@helenw495]

You're right Grace, it's just that to refer to a chicken when it's not seem bizarre. I'm not a vegan but my sister is, and frankly most vegetarians I know can't bare the thought of any thing tasting like an animal. It was just a comment which could be given further consideration. Have a lovely day.

[@welsh_vegan_allotment_holder]

@@helenw495 that's why it's written down as chick'n and he does say vegan chicken a lot, especially at first. I don't care if something tastes like an animal as long as it isn't. Yes animal flesh might be tasty but that doesn't justify eating them.

[@SCRT]

Literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, an‍d may your dreams come true,‍ stay safe and have a wonde‎rful‍ day. 💕

[@rippawallet]

Eff off you weirdo bot. Not sure why I'm replying to a bot but yeah

[@miriamschiro8585]

I’m missing too many ingredients for this

[@thelmafigueroa8877]
