a few years ago I had Bourbon Chicken at a food court at the King of
Prussia mall in PA. I don't get down that way much, but after trying a
few different recipes from different web sites, I have yet to get near
the flavor of the Bourbon Chicken from the mall, anyone have any recipes
that were good, I tried some recipes that did not have bourbon in them
and they were below average taste to me, a few with the bourbon and they
were so so.

Guessing that you probably got it from the same national chain I did,
this is a take on their version:

http://www.copykat.com/2009/02/04/ca...urbon-chicken/

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds of Thigh Meat or Dark Meat (cut in bite size chunks)
2 tablespoons Teriyaki Sauce
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Salt
1/2 teaspoon Ginger Powder
3 tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
1 cup White Grape Juice
1/2 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup water

Instructions

Mix teriyaki sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, ginger, brown
sugar 1/2 cup white grape juice and bourbon. Stir until thoroughly
blended. Pour 1/3 sauce on chicken pieces and mix. Refrigerate for 3
hours or best overnight. Save remainder sauce and refrigerate.

Braise chicken with marinate on medium low heat until cooked. Remove
from frying pan. In a 2 quart sauce pan heat remainder of bourbon sauce
and add 1/2 cup of white grape juice and 1 tablespoon of sugar with 1/4
cup water. Bring to a simmer and stir until sugar is disolved. Add
chicken to sauce and stir until chicken is coated and its ready to serve

Sounds like you'll need to work there to find out the secret, which
probably comes premade in a bottle if it's in a food court.

Some things are just better as a restaurant dish, because if you don't
let that happen - you'd have no reason to eat out. I, personally,
love eating out and when I find a dish a restaurant makes better than
I do or something I never make (like Bourbon Chicken) - I leave it
that way, because then I have a reason to return.

Well, first you would have to catch them.
