Bourbon Chicken

Recipe #45809 | 35 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: LinMarie

I searched and finally found this recipe on the internet. It is a copycat of the Bourbon Chicken sold in Chinese carry-outs in my hometown. This recipe is so good that my sons gobble it up leaving me just a spoonful. Their excuse was they thought I had eaten.

    Loved this recipe. Used orange juice instead of apple juice, balsamic instead of cider vinegar, and it still turned out great. Thank you.

    Excellent recipe. I must confess when it was first published I enquired if the burbon had been left out of the recipe (I had never heard of Burbon Chicken) but can assure you that no burbon is needed. I served it over rice as suggested with oven baked asparagus and a carrot salad - fabulous meal. I used hot pepper flakes and fresh garlic (3/4 tsp) Nice heat great recipe thatnks LinMarie
