About the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups bourbon

  • 2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice

  • 1 cup hoisin sauce

  • 2 tablespoons fresh gingerroot minced

  • 2 tablespoons coarsely ground pepper divided

  • 4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 8 cloves garlic minced

  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt divided

  • 5 pounds chicken thighs boneless and skinless

  • 1 cup sweet red pepper sliced

  • 1 cup yellow onions sliced

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

  • In a small bowl, whisk the bourbon, the pineapple juice, the hoisin sauce, the ginger, 1 tablespoon of the pepper, the Worcestershire sauce, the garlic, and 1 teaspoon of the salt together until blended.

  • Place the chicken in a shallow dish, add 1/2 of the marinade, and turn to coat.

  • Cover the chicken and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to overnight, turning occasionally.

  • Cover and refrigerate the remaining marinade.

  • Grease the grill rack. 

  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

  • Drain the chicken and discard the marinade it was soaking in.

  • Grill the chicken, covered, until a thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken reads 170 degrees F, about 5-6 minutes on each side.

  • In a medium bowl combine the peppers, the onions, the olive oil, the remaining salt, and the remaining pepper.

  • Grill the peppers and the onions, turning frequently, until soft, about 5-7 minutes. 

  • In a small saucepan on the grill, cook the reserved marinade over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. 

  • Chop the grilled pepper and the grilled onions and sprinkle them over the chicken
