Southern Bourbon Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons peanut oil
one 3 1/2 lb chicken, cut into serving pieces
1/2 cup Bourbon
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/2 small green bell pepper, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream

Preparation

In a large skillet, heat butter and oil over moderate heat, add chicken pieces, and brown on all sides. Add 1/4 c of the bourbon and carefully ignite with match. Let burn until flames die.
Add onion, bell pepper, thyme, rosemary, and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1/4 c bourbon and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer till chicken is tender, about 30-40 minutes.
Transfer chicken and vegetables to a platter with a slotted spoon. Add cream to the skillet, return to moderate heat, and cook, stirring, till gravy is thickened, about 5 minutes. Once sauce is desired consistency, pour over chicken and serve.
