What Are Bourbon Chicken Bundles?
Bourbon chicken is exactly what it sounds like, chicken marinated in a bourbon-based slather, accented by garlic, red pepper flakes, soy sauce, apple juice, scallions and parsley. It’s the ultimate sweet marinade with a kick. These Bourbon Chicken Bundles are smaller, however, since they’re cut into bite-sized or 2-inch-thick pieces. The chicken is then mixed with spinach, Parmesan cheese and ricotta cheese, then covered in Phyllo dough and baked to golden perfection. They’re served with a cream sauce on the side that’s ideal for dipping.
