Bourbon Chicken History
Though this dish is said to be NOT Cajun, It has become associated with Cajun and I see it on several good Cajun sites.
1 Chicken cut up or
1 1/2 Lbs boneless chicken breast
GLAZE
1 cup Jim Beam Bourbon whiskey
1/2 cup Dark brown sugar
1 cup Ketchup
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup White vinegar
1 tbs. Fresh lemon juice
3 Cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. Dry mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine Bourbon, sugar, ketchup, sauce, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper.
Chicken can be marinted for a few hours in the sauce, but it is not manditory.
If you BBQ the chicken, baste it with the sauce ...when it is turned be sure and serve some for dipping.
If you are pan-fry the chicken , brown the chicken then pour the sauce into the pan and simmer for 5 minutes till sauce thickens.
Serve with rice or pasta.
