Brown Sugar Chicken (Dew This!)
Happy new year!
The start of the new year is like a blank notebook, a fresh workout routine or a stiff pair of black yoga pants. Anything is possible.
And then comes February. And Girl Scout Cookies.
Unrelated: By far, my most popular recipe has been Brown Sugar Chicken.
It’s super easy, crazy tasty and kids will actually eat dinner when it is served. Without complaints. Seriously.
While in a pinch, I happened on an improvement that has made this delectable dish, even more delicious. Yes, it is possible. I will bet you my 6th pair of black yoga pants that you will agree.
Instead of using Sprite or 7-up in the recipe, I used Mountain Dew. Once I used diet. Once I used throwback. (And I don’t even like Mountain Dew.)
Dood.
Dew it.
You won’t regret it. That box of Thin Mints on the other hand…

Did you get into my stash of Dt Dew that you graciously treat me to whenever I’m hanging out at your place?

I have to admit that I’m addicted to diet mt dew, and I love this recipe so I’m glad you tipped me off to this – we always have dt dew in the house and I’ll use it going forward! I can’t believe you don’t love the dew…and I thought we had so much in common?!?!?

Janan – Yes. :)

Kelly – You crack me up! I don’t drink a lot of soda, so when I do, it’s usually Diet Dr. Pepper. I don’t even like Diet Pepsi or Diet Coke unless that’s the only option. The fact that it makes wonderful BSC and also keeps apple slices from browning makes me re-think my natural prejudices towards the Dew.

Did you notice a difference when using the diet soda? I always try to cut the sugar wherever possible & would love to try a less-sugared version.
