    This recipe takes boring grilled chicken to a whole new level! The inspiration came from the popular mall dish, Bourbon Chicken, a dish used to get as a teenager at my local malls Cajun-themed Chinese restaurant. I served it over cauliflower rice, but it would also be great with brown rice.,Rather than stir frying, and using all that oil and sugar they typically use in the dish, I lightened it up and made it on the grill with a lot less sugar. This chicken is so deliciously flavorful with hints of bourbon flavor.,The longer it marinates the better it tastes! I marinaded it for 12 hours but you can even do it overnight.,If you dont have a gas grill, you can make this on a grill pan or under the broiler.,Boneless, skinless chicken thighs would be great in place of chicken breasts. Increase the cook time to about 20 minutes, turning often if doing so.,To make without alcohol you can eliminate the bourbon.,Grilled Chicken Tacos with Lettuce Slaw and Cotija Cheese,Zesty Lime Grilled Chicken with Pineapple Salsa,Korean Grilled Chicken Breasts,Grilled Chicken with Black Bean Mango Salsa,Grilled Chicken and Zucchini Yakitori
