Bourbon Chicken

This is a recipe my Mom made, and immediately sent me. I went over to her house the next day with SS and she let us taste some left overs. We loved it so much that she cooked us up some real quick! It's super yummy, filling, and can easily be tailored to the amount of spice you like. Of course, easy to make as well!

Ingredients:

2 pounds boneless chicken breasts; cut into bite-size pieces

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 garlic clove; crushed

1/4 teaspoon ginger

3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1/4 cup apple juice

1/3 cup light brown sugar

2 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon cider vinegar

1/2 cup water

1/3 cup soy sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch; (if thick sauce desired)

Heat your oil in a large skillet and cook your chicken bits until lightly browned. Remove chicken from skillet.

Mix your remaining ingredients together and add to the skillet. Cook until evenly mixed and dissolved. 

 Add your chicken and bring everything to a hard boil. Let it simmer for 20 minutes, uncovered. Serve over rice! That's all (: You can even just eat the chicken plain, cause its that good! The sauce is delicious, and you can always add more or less red pepper flakes for different heat levels. Hubby topped his bowl with flakes and added hot sauce. Surprise, surprise. This didn't take long at all, and we ate it alllll up!! Try it out! (:
