  1. Clean chicken and drain.  Marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Heat pan with oil.  Pan fry chicken pieces to brown on both sides.
  3. Add in ginger slices.  Fry till aromatic.  Mix well with chicken, pour in Coca Cola and remaining marinade sauce.
  4. Bring it to a boil add in chilli, garlic and light soy sauce to taste.  Cook on low medium heat to simmer chicken for 15-20 minutes until sauce is reduced and slightly thick and sticky.  Stir in lemon juice if using. Turn chicken once through the cooking.
