INGREDIENTS:
For the Chicken:
3-4 boneless,skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup cornstarch
2 eggs, slightly beaten
¼ cup canola or vegetable oil
For the Sauce:
¾ cup sugar
4 tablespoons ketchup
½ cup vinegar (preferably rice or white)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
3. Working in two batches, toss the chicken pieces in cornstarch and then coat with the egg. Heat the oil over medium-high heat and again in two batches, brown the chicken, turning it so that all sides are browned.
4. Place the chicken in a single layer in a 9x13 baking dish.
5. Whisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and pour evenly over the chicken. Turn the chicken to ensure each piece is coated.
6. Bake for 1 hour, turning the chicken every 15 minutes
- We loved this and will definitely be making it again. It was messy to put together but really not hard and definitely worth it.
- Next time, I may try adding chunks of onion and pepper; coated in sauce, they should retain a nice texture while baking. It could also be great with orange zest and extract.

Or ginger! Boy, would this be good with ginger!
Spray the pan and cover it with foil before putting the chicken on it to keep the mess under control.
