Bourbon Chicken
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless chicken breast-cut into bite size pieces
- 1-2 tbs olive oil
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
- 1/4 cup apple juice
- 1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 tbs catsup
- 1 tbs cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1 tbs corn starch
- 1 tbs water
Instructions
Heat oil in large pot then add chicken pieces and lightly brown for about 6-7 minutes. Remove chicken from pot and put aside. Now add garlic, ginger, pepper, apple juice, brown sugar, catsup, vinegar, water and soy to pot and heat over med heat until dissolved. Add chicken, bring to a boil and then simmer for about 20 minutes. In a small bowl mix corn starch and water and add to chicken and sauce just before serving to thicken. I serve this over rice and I like to have extra sauce so I usually double #1-8 and the corn starch and water but don't double it is great. the soy sauce as it will be too salty. Hope everyone enjoys this as much as I do. It is even better the second day.
