Required Kitchen Tools

Making Hickory Bourbon Chicken is a breeze when you have the right tools ready. Here’s what I use every time:
  1. Mixing Bowl – For preparing the bourbon-soy marinade.
  2. Whisk – To blend the marinade ingredients smoothly.
  3. Glass Baking Dish or Zip-Top Bag – Perfect for marinating the chicken evenly.
  4. Oven-Safe Baking Dish – For baking the chicken to juicy perfection.
  5. Basting Brush – To brush the chicken with extra glaze during cooking for maximum flavor.
  6. Meat Thermometer – To ensure your chicken reaches the ideal internal temperature of 165°F without overcooking.
