Spirited Chicken Recipes

Use mellow bourbon along with soy sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, and fresh ginger to make an Asian-style marinade. The bourbon adds a distinct flavor to the dish that can't really be replicated by another ingredient. However, if you use chicken broth instead of the bourbon, you'll still have the Asian flavors of the soy and hoisin sauces.

Non-alcoholic version: Use 1/2 cup of chicken broth instead of bourbon.
