Denny's Bourbon Chicken Skillet
Denny’s bourbon chicken brings together tender, juicy meat and a sweet, savory glaze that clings to every bite!The key to getting that deep caramelized coating is letting the sauce reduce properly before tossing the chicken back in.I always marinate the chicken for at least an hour to let the sauce really soak in, giving it an even richer taste.One reason I keep making this dish is how well it pairs with steamed rice—the sauce seeps in, giving the rice an incredible boost of flavor.If you want a little more kick, a dash of red pepper flakes or a splash of extra bourbon can take it up another notch.
