BOURBON STREET CHICKEN

Steps:

• I use a large skillet but a good sized pot will work beautifully for this recipe. Remember whatever you use has to hold all of the chicken pieces and the liquid.
• In a large skillet, over medium heat, place oil and wait until it shimmers or a drop of water flicked in it dances.
• Cook your chicken pieces until browned and no longer pink inside. I usually make mine bite sized and find that the easiest to eat and serve. Exact timing will depend on the size of your chicken pieces.
• While chicken is cooking grab a large mixing bowl and combine soy sauce, broth, cider vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, juice, crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne, ginger and garlic. Stir until everything is dissolved together.
• As soon as your chicken is cooked pour soy mixture into your skillet with your chicken.
• Bring to a good boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. You want to reduce the amount of liquid in the skillet or pot with your chicken. We use a lot and love to drizzle it all over rice or as dressing on a salad.
• Usually, I serve the chicken pieces with a slotted spoon to control the amount of liquid that is served but more often than not I don't even need to.
• Serve and enjoy!

BOURBON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cook the rice: Place the rice in a wire mesh sieve or strainer and rinse under cold water for about a minute. In a medium saucepan add the rice and 1 3/4 cups of water. Cover the rice and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Once it comes to a boil, 4-5 minutes, reduce the heat to medium low and let the rice cook for about 10 minutes. After 10 minutes remove from heat and keep the lid on for 10 additional minutes. When ready fluff it with a fork.
• Cook the sauce: In a medium bowl combine the garlic, ginger, chicken stock, bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Add the sauce to the same skillet where you cooked the chicken and set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, 2-3 minutes.
• Garnish and serve: Serve the bourbon chicken immediately over rice. Garnish with chives and sesame seeds.
• Storage and reheating instructions: If you have leftovers, you can store the chicken in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze it for up to 3 months. Reheat bourbon chicken in the microwave with a splash of water or gently in a pot or skillet with a splash of water.
