Easy Grilled Bourbon Chicken

Found this recipe years ago. It is a little different from some of the other grilled bourbon chicken recipes on Zaar. There is no ketchup in this recipe and it is not spicy. You can certainly add a few dashes of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to kick it up a notch. Time indicated below does not include marinating.

• Ready In: 40 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 3  lbs chicken pieces (wings, breasts, thighs, whatever your preference)
• 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
• 1⁄2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1⁄3 cup Bourbon
• 2  tablespoons  dried onion flakes
• 1  teaspoon ground ginger
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients, except chicken, to make the sauce. Set aside ½ cup of this sauce for basting the chicken later while grilling.
2. Add chicken to the bowl of remaining sauce, tossing chicken to coat with sauce mixture.
3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
4. Drain chicken, discarding marinade.
5. Grill chicken, basting often with reserved sauce, until chicken is cooked through (about 20 to 30 minutes depending on the size and cut of chicken pieces).
