Bourbon Chicken

I love recipes when you combine everything at once and that's the case with this one. It's very easy and tastes great.


Bourbon Chicken


1 ½ lbs skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 TBS olive oil
2 TBS Dijon mustard
¼ cup Bourbon Whiskey
2 TBS red wine vinegar
2 TBS Worcestershire sauce
2 TBS soy sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
Pinch of sea salt
Black pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced

Combine olive oil, mustard, bourbon, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, salt and pepper in a zip-lock bag. Add chicken and refrigerate several hours or overnight. Remove chicken from marinade and save marinade.

Grill chicken over medium heat uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink, turning once. Don’t overcook.
                                                                                             
Add reserved marinade to a small skillet; bring to a boil, stirring constantly until it has reduced by 1/3. Pour sauce over chicken or use for dipping.

Tips:  - I use dark brown sugar, but then again, I always do when brown sugar is called for.
