I'm not a big fan of whiskey, but I loved this dish! The pineapple and brown sugar really mellow out the whiskey flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the chicken came out dry and overcooked. The sauce was also too sweet for my taste.

This dish was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the pineapple-whiskey sauce was sweet, tangy, and flavorful. I served it over rice, and it was the perfect comfort food for a cold winter night.
