Sweet and Sour Chicken


This was good and it was fun to try an asian recipe but I'm not sure it was worth all the time and effort. Next time I want sweet and sour chicken I may just head to Pei Wei...

Chicken:
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup cornstarch
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup canola oil

Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons ketchup
1/2 cup vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic salt
Season chicken chunks with salt and pepper. Dip chicken into cornstarch, then egg. 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. Bake for 1 hour at 325, uncovered. Turn chicken every 15 minutes. Serve over rice.
