Ingredients:

• 700 g (25 oz) chicken breast
• 500 ml (17 fl oz) Coca-Cola
• 3 g (0.1 oz) salt
• 3 g (0.1 oz) black pepper
• 100 g (3.5 oz) mozzarella cheese
• 1 carrot, grated
• 100 g (3.5 oz) canned mushrooms, drained and sliced
• 10 g (0.4 oz) parsley, chopped
• 80 g (2.8 oz) cheese cream
• 1 green spicy pepper, finely chopped
• 100 g (3.5 oz) mozzarella cheese (for topping)
• 100 g (3.5 oz) cheddar cheese (for topping)

Steps on How to Do It:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
   • Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces or strips. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper, making sure all sides are evenly coated.
   • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil if needed. Sear the chicken on both sides until it turns golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side). The chicken should not be fully cooked at this stage.
2. Cook the Chicken in Coca-Cola:
   • Once the chicken is seared, pour 500 ml of Coca-Cola over the chicken in the skillet. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let the chicken simmer in the Coca-Cola for about 20 minutes. This will help tenderize the meat and add a sweet glaze to the chicken as the soda reduces.
   • Stir occasionally and allow the sauce to reduce until it becomes thick and sticky. The chicken should be fully cooked through by the time the sauce has thickened.
3. Prepare the Stuffed Mushrooms:
   • While the chicken is simmering, prepare the stuffed mushrooms. In a bowl, mix the canned mushrooms with 80 g of cheese cream, 100 g of mozzarella, and finely chopped green spicy pepper.
   • Spoon the mixture into each mushroom cap, pressing down gently to fill them completely. Top with a bit of shredded cheddar cheese for an extra cheesy finish.
4. Bake the Stuffed Mushrooms:
   • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the stuffed mushrooms on the tray.
   • Bake the mushrooms in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. The mushrooms should be tender and slightly browned on the edges.
5. Finish the Chicken:
   • Once the Coca-Cola sauce has reduced and coated the chicken, remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, and sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh garnish.
6. Serve:
   • Serve the Coca-Cola glazed chicken alongside the cheesy stuffed mushrooms. Garnish with more parsley if desired, and enjoy the combination of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors.
