Join the discussionCould you cook this in the oven or slow cooker if you don’t have a pressure cooker?
Yes, this was adapted from a slow cooker recipe! https://onceamonthmeals.com/recipes/gluten-free-dairy-free-honey-bourbon-chicken-in-the-slow-cooker/
Cornstarch is not Paleo. Arrowroot powder/flour is a suitable substitute.
Arrowroot is listed in the ingredients. This has been passed along to our MenuBuilder team so they can update the directions to arrowroot as well. Thank you!
Why is it called Honey Bourbon Chicken if there is no bourbon in it?
It’s a Bourbon St. inspired recipe.
I’ve made this recipe at least 4 times and it is DELISH!! A favourite at our house!
Love to hear it’s a favorite!! ?
