This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Loved it. Super easy. Only thing I changed was to use chicken thighs.

Maybe it was the natural peanut butter, but this recipe did not turn out well. Did not care for the taste at all and would not make again.

The only thing I altered for this recipe was to cut down the amount of peanut butter in the sauce and add a little more soy sauce. Brent doesn't care for a really strong peanut butter flavor so I knew he wouldn't like this otherwise. I found the sauce to be quite good and could easily keep the full amount of peanut butter, but it is a predominant flavor in it. I wouldn't really call the sauce spicy though - if you want spicy you'll need to up the amount of crushed pepper. The peanut butter really softens the heat otherwise. The recipe has a ton of flavor overall. The chicken and broccoli were nicely done and the whole dish came together well. I added some crushed peanuts and more crushed red pepper on top when serving.

I made this recipe using the broccoli option and served the dish with white rice - it was a big hit! It very easy to make and I will definitely be making it again. My only area for improvement would be in the peanut sauce. The sauce was not very spicy (I'm sure using more crushed red pepper would help) and it also lacked a bit in flavor, although I'm not sure what I would do to enhance it. I think I may look up a separate peanut sauce recipe to try with this next time.
