Instructions
Chicken
- Preheat the oven to 325 ℉. Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place the cornstarch in a gallon-sized Ziplock bag. Place the chicken pieces into the bag with the cornstarch and seal, tossing to coat the chicken.
- Whisk the eggs together in a shallow pie plate.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until very hot. Dip the cornstarch-coated chicken pieces in the egg and place them carefully in a single layer in the hot skillet.
- Cook for 20 to 30 seconds on each side until the crust is golden. (The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.)
- Place the chicken pieces in a single layer in a 9x13-inch baking dish and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
Sweet and Sour Sauce
- Mix the sweet and sour sauce ingredients together in a medium bowl and pour evenly over the chicken.
- Bake the chicken, uncovered, for 50 minutes, tossing the chicken once at the halfway mark. Serve over warm rice and enjoy!
