Marinade/Sauce:
2 cups bourbon
1 cup firmly-packed dark brown sugar
2 cups ketchup
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dry mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
=> Mix together.
About 3 lbs chicken, cut into 3/4 to 1 inch chunks
=> marinate in the marinade overnight in the fridge
Drain the chicken, reserving marinade into a small pot. Quickly fry the chicken in a wok, keeping
the temperature of the oil up. Small batches work best. Remove to serving bowl.
Add some water to the marinade and bring it to a rolling boil. Reduce to a simmmer. Add more of whatever if it needs it.
about 4 cups mixed veggies, chopped
onions, chopped
garlic, smooshed
=> Saute the garlic, then add the onions. When they are sweating nicely, add the mixed veggies. When veggies are not quite cooked the way you like them:
about 8 cups leftover cooked rice
=> Stirfry rice into veggies. Pour simmering marinade over; mix well. Mix in to chicken in serving
bowl. Garnish with chopped scallions and chopped pecans.

"mixed veggies" - those evil things that are corn/peas/carrots/limabeans and come in freezer bags, or fresh ones?
