My hubby LOVES, and I mean LOVES bourbon, so anytime I find a recipe that includes bourbon I try it. Well, I pinned this recipe for Bourbon "Crack" Chicken on Pinterest without looking at the ingredients. When I finally went to make it this week, I realized there is absolutely no bourbon in Bourbon "Crack" Chicken.
Hmm....
It still ended up being a really good dish even without the bourbon. It was very similar to the Crockpot Cashew Chicken I made a few weeks ago.
Overall, good taste and super easy to throw together. I served mine with broccoli and brown rice.
Bourbon “Crack” Chicken – Crockpot Style
From My Time Passages
2 lbs boneless chicken breasts cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (evoo)
1 garlic clove crushed
1/4 teaspoon ginger (I omitted this b/c I don't like ginger and I didn't have any)
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup light apple juice
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons organic ketchup or chili sauce (depending on how hot you like stuff)
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
Whisk all ingredients into crockpot and add chicken. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4. 30 minutes before serving, add in frozen broccoli.
While I'm not a very granola, crunchy, organic type of person, I've decided to attempt clean eating to correct some minor health issues that have popped up recently. Starting in January 2013, my family will attempt to rid our diet of preservatives, additives and other processed/junk food. Along with clean eating, I still want to save money, so my adventures will see what kind of deals I can get on natural foods.
