Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp butter
• 12 chicken legs, skin-on
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 1 1/2 cups whiskey
• 4 cups barbecue sauce
• 1 cup peach preserves
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire
• 4 peaches, pitted and sliced into 8 slices each
• Mashed potatoes, for serving
• 3 green onions, thinly sliced
• Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 300.

2. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet or pot over medium0high heat. Cook the chicken pieces until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Add the onion to the skillet. Stir and cook over medium heat for about 3 minutes, or until translucent.

4. Pour in the whiskey, taking care if you’re cooking over an open flame. Cook for 3 minutes or so, allowing the whiskey to cook and reduce.

5. Pour the barbecue sauce into the pan. Add the peach preserves, Worcestershire and 1/2 cup water to the sauce, then whisk to combine.

6. Add the chicken back to the pan , throw in the peaches and cover the skillet with a lid or foil and place in oven for 1 1/2 hours.

7. By then the chicken is tender and falling off the bone. Serve the chicken over a big mound of mashed potatoes, spooning sauce over the whole thing. Sprinkle with green onions and parsley.
