Creating Best Crock Pot Bourbon Chicken is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare Chicken: Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces for quicker cooking and better flavor absorption.

2. Mix Sauce Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, minced garlic, ginger, sesame oil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

3. Add Chicken to Crock Pot: Place the chicken pieces in the bottom of the slow cooker.

4. Pour Sauce: Pour the prepared bourbon sauce over the chicken, ensuring it is well covered.

5. Cover and Cook: Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

6. Thicken Sauce (Optional): For a thicker sauce, remove the chicken after cooking. Transfer the sauce to a saucepan and bring it to a boil. In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry. Add this to the boiling sauce and stir until thickened.

7. Return Chicken: If you’ve thickened the sauce, return the chicken to the crock pot and stir to coat.

8. Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle with chopped green onions for extra freshness.

9. Serve: Serve the bourbon chicken over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
