Dutch Oven Sprite Chicken Recipe
Dutch Oven Sprite Chicken
I love it when camping season rolls around and it is time for some good dutch oven cooking. There is nothing like the taste of campfire cooking. This is another fabulous campfire cooking recipe using dutch ovens from my friend Ryan.
This recipe is commonly known as Sprite Chicken or Chicken Stew and it feeds about 20 people. You can modify this recipe to feed more if you cook in a 16-inch dutch oven or you can scale it down and cook in a smaller dutch oven.
Supplies you will need:
- 14-inch dutch oven
- 28 charcoals
- 1-gallon sized bag
- Mixing and serving spoon
- Charcoal Lighter Basket
- Dutch Oven Lid Lifter

I’d like to feature this recipe in a roundup on my site. May I use one photo along with a link back? Thanks.
Yep!! You may!
How can I make this at home over the stovetop?
How many coals when cooking bacon?
What about metric measurements?
My son made for camping trip. Pre cooked bacon and chicken. Worked out great. Everything prepped the night before. Assembled as coal were in chimney. Took a little longer to cook than we thought. Went through two sets of coals. To maintain heat.
Glad you got it to work Jeff!
have you ever tried to pre-cook the meats at home and then the main dish at the site? Would grilled chicken work too?
I have never tried pre-cooking the meat, but I am pretty sure it would work! I also have no idea about the grilled chicken. I would say your best bet would be to give it a try one day and see how it works out. Hey, it could be the next best thing! Let us know how it goes.
One of our new family favs when we are camping! So good!
So glad you enjoyed it Shawnna!
My daughter (12 ) wanted to try making this on our camping trip and it turned out AWESOME. Now it’s a regular on our camping menu!
Oh that’s awesome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! We love it too! 😁
