I searched and finally found this recipe on the internet. It is a copycat of the Bourbon Chicken sold in Chinese carry-outs in my hometown. This recipe is so good that my sons gobble it up leaving me just a spoonful. Their excuse was they thought I had eaten —Jenny Walter

Great recipe, one adjustment I would make is using 1/4 cup of soy sauce because too much will impart a very salty taste, otherwise perfect rendition of bourbon chicken
