Very delicious home-made sweet and sour chicken. It impressed my mom's fiancee, and it's very simple to make.
Ingredients:
2 cups white sugar
1 1/3 cups white vinegar
2 2/3 cups water
1 cup soy sauce
4 tablespoons ketchup
8 tablespoons cornstarch
4 1/2-5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups all-purpose flour
cooking oil (preferably canola)
curry powder
Directions:
1. DIRECTIONS: Sauce - Place sugar, vinegar, water, soy sauce, ketchup and cornstarch in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil. Stir continuously until the mixture has thickened.
2. DIRECTIONS: CHICKEN - Pre-heat oven to 350°. Heat oil in medium skillet, about 1 inch up sides.
3. Cut breasts into 1-inch strips, cutting the strips in half. Mix flour and curry powder in bowl. Cover strips in flour mixture and place into pan, turning when lightly brown.
4. When both sides are brown with dark tan spots, place in a 2 casserole dishes or baking pans, covering the bottom, but not stacking. Separate chicken evenly, and separate sauce so chicken is covering at least half the chicken.
5. Bake for 25 minutes and serve alone or on a bed of rice.
