"It seems all of the Bourbon Chicken recipes online are exactly the same. I was craving it, but I just couldn't bear all the salt and sugar. I subbed out a couple of ingredients and was able to cut the salt by almost half... the carbs by almost half... And I cut the sugar by two thirds! (P.S. Bragg's Aminos are not as low in sodium as coconut aminos.) Also, the bourbon is somewhat gratuitous."
