Bourbon Chicken Dinner

I want to share with you this Awesome dinner I made the last night for Joe.

This tasted just as good, if not better, than any bourbon chicken you would get at a restaurant.

I doubled the sauce recipe and made healthy medley of stir fried vegetables with chopped garlic and ginger to add with the chicken and sauce. I served it on a bed of multi grain rice.

Joe added this to his list of favorites!!


Recipe adapted from Receipezaar
