Directions
8 STEPS
1
Cut chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine chicken with water, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, and 2 teaspoons cornstarch. Mix well and let marinate for 15 minutes.
2
In a small bowl, mix together remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rice vinegar, dark brown sugar, chicken broth, sesame oil, and white pepper to create the sauce. Set aside.
3
Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add chicken and sear for 1 minute on each side, then transfer seared chicken to a plate.
4
Reduce heat to medium and add ginger, garlic, and chopped onion to the wok. Cook for 20 seconds, or until onion is translucent.
5
Pour bourbon into the wok and deglaze, scraping up any browned bits. Allow to cook for 30 seconds.
6
Add the sauce mixture to the wok and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the wok and cook until the sauce thickens.
7
In a separate small bowl, mix together remaining 2 teaspoons cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Gradually stir in the slurry to the chicken and sauce and cook until thickened to desired consistency.
8
Remove the ginger slice, if desired. Stir in chopped scallions and serve Smoky Bourbon Glazed Chicken over steamed white rice or noodles.
