Directions:
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, garlic, ground ginger, red pepper flakes, and chicken broth. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it with the sauce. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and the chicken to absorb the flavors.
While the chicken is simmering, steam the broccoli until tender.
Serve the bourbon chicken over rice with steamed broccoli on the side, drizzling extra sauce over the top.
