Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken thighs or breasts cut in chunks
- ¼ cup bourbon
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine all of the sauce ingredients (except the cornstarch slurry). Bring it to a low boil.
- Add the cornstarch to the sauce and whisk. Allow the sauce to thicken, then turn off the heat and let it cool for 10 minutes. Reserve half of the sauce.
- Place the chunks of chicken in a bowl with the remaining sauce. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.
- Thread 3 pieces of chicken onto each skewer, packing them together.
- You can grill, bake, or air fry the skewers. Grill over high heat for 4 minutes per side. Bake or air fry at 400°F for 8-12 minutes. They are done when they reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Baste them with the reserved sauce as they cook.
