Recipe: Sweet/Sour Chicken

Made this super tasty dish last night and it got the Brown family stamp of approval ... excusing how much more labor intensive it was than my normal repertoire of dinner plans.  It's still simple enough to get a shout out from me and my lazy cooking ways. :)  Check it out!

Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken
(taken from Six Sisters' Stuff blog)

Chicken:
3-4 boneless chicken breasts
salt & pepper, to taste
1 cup cornstarch
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup canola oil

Sweet and Sour Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar
4 tbs ketchup
1/2 cup vinegar
1 tbs soy sauce
1 tsp garlic salt

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Rinse your chicken breasts in water and then cut into cubes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Dip chicken into the cornstarch to coat then dip into the eggs. Heat your 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet and cook your chicken until browned but not cooked through. Place the chicken in a 9x13 greased baking dish. Mix all of your sweet and sour sauce ingredients in a bowl with a whisk and then pour evenly over the chicken. Bake for one hour and during the baking process you will need to turn the chicken every 15 minutes.

Serve over rice, of course!
