Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 300.
  2. On medium heat on stove top in a dutch oven, heat olive oil and butter. When butter is melted, add the onion and cook till translucent. Add garlic, jalapeno and ginger and cook for 2 mins.
  3. Add Whiskey all at once and cook until it is reduced by half.
  4. Add apricot preserves, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce and ½ Cup Chicken Broth and heat through.
  5. While heating, salt and pepper the chicken.
  6. Add the chicken to the sauce and submerge completely into the sauce. If the sauce is not enough to cover, add the remaining chicken broth.
  7. Cover the dutch oven and place in the oven to cook for 1 ½ hours.

Notes

  • If you are concerned about the whiskey, just leave it off and add a touch of water or broth instead.
  • Browning the onions, peppers and ginger, gives those more flavor in the final dish.
  • If you want to grill this dish, simply heat all of the basic ingredients together and then use that as a marinade. Marinate the chicken for 4-6 hours and then grill. Do not use the leftover liquid to baste on the grill though.
