Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Protein
  • 1 lb chicken breasts (about 2 medium breasts)
Sauce & Marinade
  • 1/2 cup bourbon
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
Seasoning & Finish
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, whisk together bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, garlic, and ginger.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the fridge).
Cooking
  1. Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F) and oil the surface lightly.
  2. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and grill on the griddle for about 6–7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temp 165°F).
  3. In the last few minutes of cooking, brush some of the remaining marinade on the chicken to glaze — allow it to bubble and reduce slightly on the griddle.
  4. Once cooked, remove from the griddle, let rest for a few minutes, then slice against the grain and serve topped with chopped green onions.

Notes

Reserve the marinade and boil it for several minutes before using as a glaze to ensure it's safe to eat. For thicker glaze, simmer the reserved marinade briefly. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep juices inside.
