ORANGE BOURBON-INFUSED GRILLED CHICKEN

What a powerful flavor combo! Here’s a grilled chicken dish that’s not your typical one and marvelously moist and tasty — it’s a notch up and a great change of pace.

Serves 5

• 2 lbs (1. kg) chicken breast halves or deboned chicken bottoms (approximately 5 large pieces)
• 1 orange, scrubbed and sliced
• 3 Tbsp bourbon
• ¼ cup orange juice
• 2 cubes frozen garlic
• 2 Tbsp brown sugar
• 2 Tbsp oil
• 2 Tbsp ketchup
• ½ tsp paprika
• scant ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
• ½ tsp salt, or to taste

Cut chicken into thin slices, or pound until thin.

Place all ingredients into a large ziplock bag. Seal bag, then shake and squeeze, so that marinade fully coats chicken pieces. Refrigerate, and allow to marinate a minimum of 1 hour.

Preheat grill. Remove chicken pieces and place directly onto hot grill. Grill for about 5 minutes on each side, or until chicken is cooked through and beginning to brown. Serve immediately.
