Bruce’s Kick Ass & Easy Bourbon Chicken Recipe
I tried for several years to come up with a recipe for Bourbon Chicken that was as good as that served in the restaurants that made it famous. Finally I got it! The good part is that even though it’s easy, it’s actually better than most I have found and been impressed with in the restaurants. You might want to make more than you think you will need.
Blessings,
Bruce Richards
