Hey! Bourbon chicken with actual bourbon in it!!! This is awesome!! It creates a well-balanced, thick sauce with hints of bourbon and pineapple. Very delicious!!!!!!! I used Evan Williams bourbon whiskey as it is pretty reasonably priced and good. I sauteed my chicken in 1 TBSP grapeseed oil then followed this exactly. Used fresh ginger and light brown sugar. Love this recipe, thanks so much for posting!!!!!!!!!

DH of 32 years & I are (most of the time) empty nesters, with 2 DD & 2 DS (ages 29, 27, & twins 23). Have lived in the Sioux Falls, SD area since 1984.
As the oldest daughter of a working mom, having to get supper started was the beginning of my love of cooking. Learning & experimenting with what to "throw in" is half the fun, and anyone who says they can't cook is really saying they don't have the patience or interest (IMHO)! ;-) Using fresh produce from the garden is absolutely my favorite thing to do - winter in South Dakota can get loooong with "cardboard" produce from the grocer. Having grown up in the service, we were exposed to lots of different cultural foods. With a mom who also loved to cook, variety & trying new foods was a true treat!
DD (grrrl genius) joined RecipeZaar at the same time I did, and she'd like me to get *all* my recipes uploaded and use the site, rather than my sending paper copies. We'll see how quickly I accomplish that !
