In one of the "what's for dinner?" threads in the last couple of weeks, someone was making this for dinner. Can you share your recipe??

TIA!

I was just getting ready to try this- it was on the favorite chicken dishes thread from Zandy595.



Bourbon Chicken

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...or as DS9 calls it, Burpin' Chicken or Dog Food Chicken (not sure why)

boneless, skinless chicken breasts
olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp powdered ginger (use fresh if you have it)
1/4 c apple juice
2 or 3 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp ketchup
1 Tbsp cider vinegar
1/4 c soy sauce
1/2 c water
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 c water

Brown chicken in oil, remove from skillet, cover, set aside. Add garlic to same skillet and saute for one minute. Add apple juice, ginger, sugar, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce and 1/2 cup water. Wisk together and bring to a low boil. Add chicken and any juices, stir to coat chicken. In a small bowl mix cornstarch and 1/4 cup water together. Add mixture to pan and stir until sauce has thickened. Serve over rice.

Play around with the recipe until it suits your taste. If you like a little heat, add some crushed red pepper flakes.
