trying to make a bourbon chicken like they in the malls I need use imitation wine where can fine or how one?
To make a bourbon chicken dish like the ones found in malls imitating the alcoholic flavor without actual wine:
Imitation Wine: Instead of using real wine, you can make your own imitation wine using a combination of ingredients to mimic the flavor without added alcohol.
1. Fruit Juice: Use dark grape juice, apple juice, or cranberry juice as the base for the imitation wine.
2. Sweetener: Add a touch of brown sugar or honey to balance the tartness of the fruit juice and provide the sweetness found in wine.
3. Vinegar: A small amount of red or white vinegar can help provide a bit of acidity similar to wine.
4. Flavoring: Add a mixture of spices such as nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, and vanilla to enhance the flavor and provide depth.
5. Red Food Coloring: This is optional but adds a touch of color similar to red wine.

- 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
