4-Ingredient Slow Cooker Cola Chicken Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

This is an easy, no-fuss slow cooker chicken recipe made with your choice of chicken parts and only 3 additional ingredients (plus salt and pepper). Use a cut-up whole chicken, chicken leg quarters, or a combination of thighs and drumsticks. The chicken may be served as an entree, or it can be removed from the bones and shredded for sandwiches. Serve the shredded chicken on buns with some of the sauce. If you use very large pieces, like chicken halves, cook them on high for 1 hour and then turn the setting to low and continue cooking for about 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours longer. The 1 hour higher temperature start will ensure the chicken gets up to a safe temperature quickly. Serve the chicken with potato salad or baked potatoes and steamed vegetables for a satisfying family meal. If you're making sandwiches with the shredded chicken and sauce, serve them with baked beans and coleslaw.
