Sweet and Sour Chicken



Sometimes you just want some "chinese" tasting food and this is a great recipe. Best of all it's GF. This is from melskitchencafe.com, as I've mentioned before, one of my favorite sites for recipes.



Chicken:

3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Salt and pepper

1 cup cornstarch

2 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup canola oil

Cut boneless chicken breasts into chunks. Season with salt and pepper. Dip chicken in

cornstarch and then in egg.  Fry in a little oil until brown but not cooked through. Place in a

single layer in a baking dish. (Sometimes I just batter the chicken and let it cook at the way through if I'm feeling lazy and don't want to wait for it in the oven, then I just warm the sauce up in a small saucepan and pour, dip or drizzle over the chicken and rice)

Mix sauce ingredients (below) together and pour over chicken.

Sauce:

3/4 cup sugar

4 tablespoons ketchup

1/2 cup vinegar

1 tablespoon GF soy sauce

1 teaspoon garlic salt

Bake for one hour at 325  degrees. Turn chicken every 15 minutes so it is evenly  coated with the sauce. Serve the chicken over rice.
