GRILLED PINEAPPLE WHISKEY CHICKEN – serves 4

Plan ahead to make this simply delicious and juicy BBQ chicken. Marinating for 24 hours or more is best for providing the most flavor.

¾ cup QUALITY whiskey
¾ cup pineapple juice
½ cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
4-5 garlic cloves, FINELY minced
2 tablespoons QUALITY Worcestershire sauce
FRESH ground sea salt and black pepper, to taste
4 chicken breasts

• Whisk together whiskey, pineapple juice, BBQ sauce, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and pepper.
• Pour over chicken and let marinate overnight (24 hours is best) in the refrigerator.
• Remove chicken from marinade and grill for 12 to 15 minutes. (see notes)
• Brush with additional BBQ sauce before removing from grill.

NOTES:

• To prepare chicken inside instead of grilling, pan sear the chicken on both sides for 3 minutes. Place the chicken on a baking sheet, brush with BBQ sauce and bake for 5-10 minutes at 400º.
• You can substitute Bourbon if you prefer.
