Ingredients

  • 2 cups bourbon
  • 2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
  • 1 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp. minced fresh ginger
  • 4 tsp Worcestershire
  • 2 tbsp. coarsely ground pepper, divided

Directions

  1. Whisk bourbon, pineapple juice, hoisin sauce, ginger, Worcestershire, 1 tbsp. pepper, garlic, and 1 tsp salt until blended. Place chicken in a shallow dish. Add half of the marinade; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate overnight; turning often. Refrigerate remaining marinade.
