Sweet & Sour Chicken


I found this on Molly's blog, and it sounded yummy! Had such a great flavor. We served it over white rice with a vegetable side dish of green beans with almonds.

INGREDIENTS:
*3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
*Salt and pepper
*1 C. cornstarch
*2 eggs, beaten
*1/4 C. canola oil

Sauce:
*¾ C. sugar
*4 T. ketchup
*½ C. vinegar
*1 T. soy sauce
*1 tsp garlic salt

DIRECTIONS:
1. Cut boneless chicken breasts into chunks. Season with salt and pepper. Dip chicken in cornstarch and then in egg (I did this, and Nate said I should have reversed it, egg first then cornstarch...which makes sense now). Fry in a little oil until brown but not cooked through. Place in a single layer in a baking dish. Mix sauce ingredients together and pour over chicken.

2. Bake for one hour at 325 degrees. Turn chicken every 15 minutes. If you like extra sauce, make another batch of sauce and bring it to a boil on the stovetop. Stir constantly and let cook over medium heat until thickened and reduced - about 6-8 minutes.
