SWEET & SOUR CHICKEN

My kids hardly eat meat but most of the time they would eat chicken. So this time I thought of making Sweet and Sour Chicken instead of ordering one. Why order something if you can make one, right? And guess what! They loved it! The crunchiness plus the combination of its sweetness and being sour at the same  time is just awesome!

Here's how to make it! You will need the following:

2-3 pcs boneless chicken, cut in desired sizes

1 cup cornstarch

2 large eggs

1/4 cup cooking oil

3/4 cup granulated sugar

4 tbsp ketchup

1/2 cup vinegar

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp dry pepper flakes

salt and pepper to taste

Season chicken with salt and pepper. Lightly beat eggs in a small bowl and coat seasoned chicken into the cornstarch and dip into the bowl of eggs.

Heat the cooking oil on medium high and fry chicken until lightly browned.

 

Once cooked, place them on a baking pan.

 

Mix sugar, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic powder and pepper flakes in a bowl. Pour the sauce over the chicken. On a preheated oven (325 F), bake chicken for 30 minutes. Turn the chicken and bake for another 30 minutes.

Serve over white/ brown rice and enjoy!
