Many people love Asian Cuisine well this one comes with a twist. Bourbon chicken is a remake of a classic with the chicken coated in a sweet & sticky sauce which is sure to be a favorite around your dinner table.
Bourbon chicken couldn’t be any easier to make – simply saute the chicken to a deep golden brown, pour the sauce over the top, and simmer. That’s all there is to it! Serve over jasmine rice for the perfect compliment. These can be cooked easily in our Westinghouse Casserole Pots which are the perfect size and a special coating which food does not stick to.
