Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup mixed bell peppers (red, yellow, green), diced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup bourbon

- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, mix together the soy sauce, bourbon, brown sugar, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Stir well until the sugar dissolves.
- Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate for a few hours.

- Sauté the Vegetables: Toss the diced onion and bell peppers onto the griddle. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened.
- Cook the Chicken: Push the vegetables to one side. Add the marinated chicken to the other side. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until fully cooked and caramelized.
- Combine and Finish Cooking: Mix the vegetables back in with the chicken. Stir well and cook together for another 2 minutes to heat through.
- Season and Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
