Soy sauce chicken is a classic Cantonese dish with legions of fans. Here, we take a shortcut with a quintessentially American beverage: Coca-Cola. The soda plays well with ginger, star anise, cinnamon, garlic, and white pepper, bringing sweetness, tang, and caramel notes to the soy-based sauce in which the chicken is cooked. Served over rice and garnished with scallions, it's a relatively simple weeknight meal that delivers big flavor. #Chicken #ColaChicken #CantoneseCuisine #SeriousEats
