Bourbon Chicken

What do you do when your favorite bourbon chicken place closes? You make your own!

What you need:

3/4 cup soy sauce

1 cup brown sugar

3 Tbl minced garlic

1 Tbl grated ginger

2 med shallots

8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut up

1 cup bourbon whiskey, I used Jack Daniels

1 T rice wine vinegar

1 tsp red pepper 

1 pat of butter

In a large pan, saute the shallots, garlic and ginger in butter, about 3-4 minutes. Add the cut up chicken pieces and let them cook for a minute or two. Add the whiskey and soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar and  red pepper. Bring to a boil and then let simmer until the chicken is thoroughly cooked, about 30 minutes. Serve over rice and use the extra juices to pour over the chicken.

Notes:

You can combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and let marinate before cooking.
