Ingredients

500 g	chicken meat from the thigh
1 clove(s)	garlic, crushed
¼ tsp	ginger, shredded
100 ml	soy sauce
100 g	sugar
3 tbsp	green onions, chopped
100 ml	bourbon
¼ tsp	crushed dried red pepper flakes

Instructions

Remove the skin and bones from the chicken thighs. Cut in bite size pieces. Combine all ingredients in one bowl, stir and cover tightly with clear wrap. Marinade in the fridge over night.

Preheat oven to 175°C. Transfer chicken with the marinade to a baking dish with a rim. Bake the chicken in one layer for about 1hour, basting several times. If too much sauce evaporates add some water.

Serve over plain basmati rice.

Note: If you prefer a thicker sauce add 1 tbsp. of cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp of water, 10 minutes before the baking time is over. Stir a few times.

I do not recommend using chicken breast, it is just too dry.
If you do not want to use alcohol you can substitute the bourbon with apple juice.
