Mildly Sweet Whiskey Chicken image

A quick whiskey chicken that has so many uses, whether by itself, over rice, or in pasta. A great dinner or lunch meal. Again it's best to BBQ the chicken, and you can remove the garlic cloves if desired; they are only there to infuse flavor into the sauce.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds chicken thighs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 ¼ cups pineapple juice
3 tablespoons bourbon whiskey, or more to taste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons butter, or to taste
2 large mushrooms, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
  • Cook the chicken thighs until no longer pink in the center and somewhat charred on the outside, about 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Let chicken cool until able to handle easily, cut into strips, and put into a large glass bowl.
  • Stir pineapple juice, bourbon whiskey, soy sauce, garlic cloves, brown sugar, and black pepper together in a saucepan over medium-low heat; stir until the sugar dissolves, bring to a simmer, and cook until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • While the sauce simmers, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Saute mushrooms in hot butter until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir into the simmering sauce.
  • Pour the mushrooms and sauce over the chicken strips and toss to coat.
