Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the chicken simmer in the sauce for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
-
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a little water to make a slurry. Stir the slurry into the chicken and sauce mixture, stirring continuously until the sauce has reached your desired consistency.

Serve the Spicy Coke Chicken over a bed of cooked white rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for a pop of color and flavor.
