I was craving Chinese food, but it seemed outside my cooking abilities. I decided to give it a go with this recipe I found on Pinterest, and I was pleasantly surprised.

The chicken came out a great texture and mix of sweet and sour tastes. This dish is going to be in my regular meal plan from now on.

 

Ingredients

Chicken

3 to 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Salt and pepper

2 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup canola oil

1 cup cornstarch

 

Sauce

3/4 cup sugar

4 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon garlic salt

1/2 cup vinegar

 

Directions

  1. Heat oil over medium heat in large skillet
  2. Cut chicken into small chunks and season with salt and pepper
  3. In a gallon bag, add the cornstarch and chicken and shake until coated
  4. Whisk the eggs in a shallow dish and dip the chicken into the mixture
  5. Fry the chicken for 2 minutes on each side (until golden brown)
  6. Mix all sauce ingredients in a bowl
  7. Place the chicken in a 9×13 baking dish and cover with sauce
  8. Cook for one hour at 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Flip the chicken every 15 minutes.
