Steps:
- Start by marinating the chicken. Mix 3 tablespoons water and 1 teaspoon soy sauce with the chicken chunks, working it with your hands until the chicken has absorbed all of the liquid. Adding water and soy sauce to the chicken (especially true if using chicken breast) results in a moist and tender chicken experience!
- Once the chicken has absorbed the liquid, mix 2 teaspoons of cornstarch into the chicken until well combined and set aside.
- Mix the sauce ingredients by combining the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rice vinegar, dark brown sugar, chicken stock or water, sesame oil and white pepper and set aside.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan on high heat until just smoking, and spread the chicken evenly. Let the chicken sear on one side for 1 minute. Use a metal wok spatula (you can also use a rubber spatula if you can't use metal utensils on your pan) to turn the chicken and sear another minute. Turn off the heat and move the seared chicken to a plate. Set aside.
- Return the wok to medium heat and immediately add the ginger (if using), garlic, and minced onion. Stir-fry for 20 seconds or until the onion is translucent, taking care not to burn the mixture.
- Stir in the bourbon to deglaze the wok, most all of the alcohol will cook off leaving the flavor behind. After 30 seconds or so, pour in the sauce mixture and stir to further deglaze the sides of the wok. Once the sauce comes to a simmer, add the chicken back to the wok. Stir until the sauce comes back to a simmer and gradually stir in the cornstarch and water mixture (stir it up first, as the cornstarch may have settled).
- Continue to stir and cook until the sauce has thickened enough to coat a spoon. At this point, you can remove the smashed piece of ginger or warn your guests so there are no surprises! Stir in the scallions and serve with steamed white rice!

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.

BOURBON CHICKEN
A favorite named after Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana and for the bourbon whiskey ingredient; although this dish, sold as Cajun-style cuisine in malls all over America, is reported to be nothing of the kind (not genuine Creole or Cajun fare)! Note: If you double the recipe, make sure that the chicken is still in a single layer. Laissez les bons temps rouler!

BOURBON CHICKEN
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. Editor's Note: Named Bourbon Chicken because it was supposedly created by a Chinese cook who worked in a restaurant on Bourbon Street.

CHINESE BOURBON CHICKEN
I found this recipe on a website called BellaOnline. It's pretty straight-forward. I liked it 'cause it doesn't call for ketchup. If you want to make it even more interesting, chop up two Thai Chilies and add them when you're marinading the chicken. *To make garlic paste , roughly chop up however much garlic you want and pour some course salt on it, not too much though. Using the blunt side of a chef's knife, press down and drag the edge over the garlic/salt mixture. Continue until the garlic is a smooth paste consistency.

Steps:
- Trim the fat from the chicken, cut into 1 inch pieces.
- In a large, non-porous container, mix together the soy sauce, the sweet soy sauce, the sugar, the bourbon, the ginger, and the garlic.
- Add the chicken, toss to coat evenly.
- Cover tightly and refrigerate over night.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, do not discard the marinade, it will be used later.
- Heat the oil in a large saute pan or wok. Make sure the pan is nice and hot before continuing. A sure fire way of ruining a stir-fry is starting cooking in a less-than-blazing-hot pan.
- Add the chicken to the pan, cook until the liquid has evaporated and the chicken is nicely browned.
- While the chicken is cooking, mix the cornstarch with a little water, add the slurry (a mixture of cornstarch and water) to the marinating liquid.
- Keeping the heat on high, add the marinade to the pan and cook until it thickens.
- Remove from heat, serve over rice, garnished with roughly chopped cilantro.
