Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, place in a shallow roasting pan and bake for about two hours, until cooked through.
- Meanwhile, place two tablespoons of the chicken stock in a saucepan with the shallots, red pepper, garlic and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes.
- Cut the kernels from the cob. Using the flat of a large knife, lightly crush the corn kernels so the milk begins to ooze out. Add the kernels with their juices to the saucepan along with the bourbon. Standing back from the stove, light the bourbon and stir with a long-handled spoon until the alcohol burns off. Add the remaining chicken stock and cook until the stock has reduced by half.
- Remove two tablespoons of the corn and pepper mixture from the saucepan and set aside. Puree the rest of the mixture in a blender, then force it through a fine sieve back into the saucepan. Return the reserved corn and peppers to the sauce, and season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper.
- When the chicken is done, lift the meat off the bone in one piece and remove the skin. Brush the top of the breasts with the beaten egg, then coat with the bread crumbs.
- Just before serving, preheat the broiler. Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet and broil for a few minutes, until the bread crumbs are toasted. Reheat the sauce, spoon some on each of four warm plates and place a chicken breast alongside. Richard serves this dish with freshly cooked polenta.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH CORN AND SWEET PEPPER RELISH
Sizzling Summer recipe! Fresh and yummy! Plan ahead- Needs to marinate for at least 2 hours! Note: I have tried this with frozen corn rather than fresh and it was equally yummy. Canned corn will not give you as crisp a texture but is very good too. Source: National Chicken Council/U.S. Poultry & Egg Association

BOURBON CHICKEN
A favorite named after Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana and for the bourbon whiskey ingredient; although this dish, sold as Cajun-style cuisine in malls all over America, is reported to be nothing of the kind (not genuine Creole or Cajun fare)! Note: If you double the recipe, make sure that the chicken is still in a single layer. Laissez les bons temps rouler!

BEST BOURBON CHICKEN
Bourbon Chicken is traditionally a Southern dish, and after moving to Pennsylvania from Oklahoma, I really missed this. I searched for a recipe I liked, but I couldn't find one, so this is my own delicious version, spiced up with ginger, fruit juice, red pepper, and a little Southern Comfort! Serve over rice.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large heavy pan or Dutch oven, and brown the chicken pieces until lightly golden on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a bowl.
- In the same dutch oven, whisk the water, brown sugar, 3/4 cup of fruit juice cocktail, soy sauce, ketchup, bourbon liqueur, apple cider vinegar, garlic, dried onion, red pepper flakes, and ground ginger into the Dutch oven. Bring the sauce to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
- Stir the chicken back into the sauce, and bring to a full boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the sauce is reduced and thickened and the chicken pieces are no longer pink in the middle, about 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken pieces to a bowl with a slotted spoon. Stir together 1/4 cup of fruit juice cocktail with the cornstarch until smooth, and whisk the cornstarch mixture into the sauce, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the sauce back to a simmer, let thicken for about 1 minute, and return the chicken pieces to the sauce. Stir to combine, and serve.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Brown the chicken: Searing the chicken in a hot pan before adding the sauce will help to develop flavor and give the chicken a nice golden color.
- Use a good quality bourbon: The bourbon you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the dish, so be sure to choose one that you enjoy drinking. Look for a bourbon that is at least 80 proof.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is a delicate meat, so it's important to cook it just until it is cooked through. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
- Serve immediately: Bourbon chicken is best served hot and fresh. If you have any leftovers, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Bourbon chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet, savory, and smoky flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new chicken recipe, give bourbon chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
