Sour Chicken

  

Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken

Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 cup cornstarch

2 large eggs, beaten

1/4 cup vegetable oil

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Sweet and Sour Sauce:

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup ketchup

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup white vinegar

1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce

1 teaspoon garlic salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 325°F (163°C).

2. Prepare the Chicken:

Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.

Place cornstarch in one bowl and beaten eggs in another.

Dip each chicken piece into the cornstarch, ensuring an even coat, then into the beaten eggs.

3. Brown the Chicken:

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the coated chicken pieces and cook until they are golden brown on the outside but not fully cooked inside.

Transfer the browned chicken to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

4. Prepare the Sauce:

In a medium bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic salt until well combined.

5. Combine and Bake:

Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken in the baking dish.

Bake, uncovered, for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure the chicken is well coated with the sauce.

6. Serve:

Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

Serve the baked sweet and sour chicken over steamed rice or alongside your favorite vegetables.

Enjoy your meal!
