Whiskey Thighs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (remove all visible fat)
    Marinade
    1/2 cup soy sauce
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1 teaspoon freshly grated gingerroot
    1 green onion, white and green parts, minced
    1/2 cup whiskey (rye, bourbon, whatever you like)
    2 tablespoons white wine
Preparation
    In a glass bowl, combine all marinade ingredients.
    Add chicken thighs to marinade, turning to make sure all meat comes into contact with marinade.
    Cover tightly and refrigerate for several hours; overnight is fine; turn chicken pieces occasionally.
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    Place chicken in an oblong casserole dish; drizzle half the marinade over thighs (you can use more than half, if you want); discard the remaining marinade.
    Bake thighs for one hour, basting frequently.
    Thighs can also be grilled; use the marinade for basting BUT there is a danger, so you MUST bring the marinade to a boil and then let it boil for a full 5 minutes; it can then be used to baste the thighs on the grill.
