Soda Pop Chicken



This is the recipe that Jaxon, the uncontested reigning champ used to win first place at the Second Annual Ron Anderson Reunion (2010) grilling competition. We got this recipe from the Duncan family. They were our good friends when we lived in Ammon, ID.



1 c. soy sauce

1 c. canola or olive oil

2 c. soda pop (Pepsi or root beer are our favorites, do not use diet soda!)


Marinade chicken tenders (you can use chicken breasts, but they will not be quite as flavorful) for 4-8 hours, turning occasionally. You can marinade them longer, but it makes the chicken a bit too salty for my tastes. I usually marinade them in a Ziploc bag or glass 9x13 pan. Someday, I would like to have a marinading pan like my mothers that seals tightly so you can flip it over.

  2. We do a version of this too - but instead of oil we use italian salad dressing and the soda is just sprite. Great flavor. If I'm making grilled chicken for salads I always use this marinade.
