Sweet and Sour Chicken

I came across this on Pinterest while I was doing my weekly menu planning, the picture looked inviting. After looking over the recipe I saw how easy this would be for a Monday night meal which always seems to be a hectic night at home. I invite you to make this yourselves no matter your culinary skills, it's sure to be a hit!

What you will need to make 4-6 servings:

Chicken:

3-4 Boneless, skinless Chicken breast

Salt and Pepper

1 cup of Cornstarch

2 large Eggs, beaten

1/4 cup Oil

Sauce:

3/4 cup granulated Sugar

4 Tablespoons Ketchup

1/2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar

1 Tablespoons Soy Sauce

1 teaspoon Garlic Salt

Directions:

Pre heat oven at 325 Degrees F.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. While the oil is heating up, cut the chicken breasts into 1 inch pieces. Season with Salt and Pepper. Place the cornstarch in a gallon-sized ziplock bag, Put the chicken in the bag with the cornstarch and seal, tossing to coat the chicken. Whisk the eggs together in a shallow pie plate. Dip the cornstarch-coated chicken pieces in the egg and place them carefully in a single layer in the hot skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes and then flip each piece over to cook on the other side until nicely golden but not all the way cooked through. Place in a single layer in a baking dish and repeat with the remaining chicken.

Mix the sauce ingredients together in a medium bowl and pour over the chicken in the baking dish. Bake for one hour, turning the chicken once or twice while cooking to coat evenly with sauce. Serve hot over steamed rice.
