Ingredients

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2

Combine ketchup, brown sugar, bourbon, peach preserves, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, steak seasoning, and liquid smoke flavoring in a saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Reserve half the sauce for later use.
Step 3

Place chicken on a sheet pan or broiling tray and brush sauce onto the chicken with a basting brush.
Step 4

Bake chicken in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then flip chicken breasts over and baste with reserved sauce.
Step 5

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler.
Step 6

Broil chicken and continue to baste and flip the chicken every 3 minutes until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes total. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
