Step 1
Start by heating some oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the chopped onion and jalapeño, and cook them until the onion becomes soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and let it cook for another minute. Pour in the bourbon and let it simmer gently for about 4 minutes, then take the pan off the heat.
