食材

1½ lb chicken breasts, cubed (or chicken thighs)

¼ tsp salt

½ tsp red pepper flakes (this can be spicy - optional!)

½ tsp smoked paprika

¼ cup onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

⅓ cup soy sauce, low sodium (or tamari)

¼ cup bourbon (I like to add an extra tablespoon for flavor)

⅓ cup honey

3 Tbsp ketchup

1 Tbsp sriracha

1 Tbsp rice vinegar

⅓ cup water + 1½ Tbsp cornstarch (whisked together to make a "slurry". Pour it into the sauce once it's mixed!)

1 Tbsp brown sugar (more if desired for a sweeter sauce)

1 cup uncooked rice (*cook it according to package instructions)

green beans or broccoli (*steamed to liking)

步驟

If cooking rice, start the rice first. Cook it according to the package instructions. Feel free to steam your veggies prior as well.

Add cubed chicken to a large bowl and toss with red pepper flakes and salt.

Add the cubed chicken to a greased skillet. Cook on medium heat for about 12-14 minutes or until it's about 165º internal heat, adding the chopped onions and garlic halfway through. It's always best to have a digital meat thermometer. This will help keep the chicken nice and juicy.

While the chicken is cooking, mix the Honey Bourbon sauce together in a medium sized bowl. Whisk well.

Once the chicken is about cooked through, pour the Honey Bourbon Sauce over everything.

Turn the heat to medium-low and cook for another 3-5 minutes or until the the sauce is thickened. Serve hot over rice with a side of steamed green beans (or any veggies of choice).
