Steps:

• Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, powdered ginger, dried minced onion, whiskey and white wine together and pour over chicken pieces in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate (stirring often) for several hours (best overnight). Bake chicken at 350°F. for one hour in a single layer with the marinade, basting every 10 minutes. Remove chicken. Scrape pan juices with all the brown bits into a frying pan. Heat, and add 2 tablespoons white wine. Stir and add chicken. Cook for 1 minute and serve.

• Put chicken pieces in the bag.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients (except chicken) for marinade (may be processed in a blender). Set aside 1/2 cup of this marinade in a clean jar (do not use the 1/2 cup set aside to marinate chicken - this portion will be used for basting the chicken during the grilling). Keep refrigerated.
• Put marinade into a Ziploc bag with chicken pieces and distribute evenly. Marinate chicken for 6-12 hours in refrigerator, turning occasionally.
• Remove chicken from marinade and drain. Allow to sit at room temperature while grill heats up. Grill over medium high heat (grill open) for 5 minutes, then close grill and reduce heat; continue cooking over low heat, for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is done (juices will run clear when pierced with a fork). Baste with 1/2 cup fresh marinade every few minutes, turning chicken to cook both sides evenly.
• Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
