Simple Bourbon Brown Sugar Glaze For Poultry, Pork & Vegetables

This simple glaze is a mild & flavorful addition
to dress up poultry, pork and vegetables!

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup bourbon

2 tablespoons soy sauce (I use low sodium)

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Method:

Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat, stirring, until the mixture reaches a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 8 to 10 minnutes, stirring occasionally  until the liquid is reduced by half. (A spoon dipped into the glaze should be coated when lifted from the pot.) 

Reduce the heat to low until ready to pour over cooking meat or serving. Makes about 3/4 cup of glaze.

Notes:

Use this glaze to pour over roast turkey breast, whole chicken, ham, pork roast or pork chops during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

It also is nice to add to carrots, beets, sweet potatoes, acorn and butternut squashes.

My husband doesn't like gravy or most sauces, so I made this for him to drizzle over his cooked turkey breast and beets ~ he liked it!
