I got a similar recipe of this a long time ago, got bored with it back then, and changed some ingredients. My husband and daughter get so excited when we're gonna have this for dinner. I don't measure some things, so if you need me to explain further, let me know. The liquid is so good that I keep sipping it! HA!

SERVES 3 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 lbs chicken thighs, with skin on
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup Coke or Sprite
2 tablespoons fresh crushed garlic
2/3 cup vinegar (mix balsamic & red wine vinegar equally to make 2/3 cup)
black pepper
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
white rice or pasta

Directions

1
Put the first 7 ingredients in a crock pot and cook for 4-5 hours on LOW.
2
Cook the rice or pasta separately.
3
When chicken is done, remove the bones and skin and throw them away.
4
Put either rice or pasta in a bowl and then ladle the Balsamic Chicken on top with some of the liquid from the crock pot.

Excellent flavor. Made this with b/s chicken breast and bean thread instead of rice or pasta. Also took about a 1/3 cup of the sauce and reduced it down to create an even more concentrated flavor. Did not add the 1/4 soda since I didn't have any. Also guestimated on the brown sugar. It probably ended up a little less than a full cup and was loose, not packed. Served this up with a side of steamed carrots and zucchini. Wonderfully simple and satisfying.

I really loved this!! It was very sweet and tangy!! The meat was tender and falling off the bones! We served it over angel hair pasta and the sauce was wonderful! Thank you!!
