Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast cut into bite-size pieces
- 1/2 Cup ketchup
- 1/2 Cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 Teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 Cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 Cups cornstarch
- 3 eggs Beaten
- 1/4 Cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth.
- Place the cornstarch in a shallow dish or bowl, add the beaten egg to a separate shallow dish or bowl.
- Dredge the chicken pieces in the cornstarch, shaking off any excess, then dip them into the beaten eggs.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the coated chicken pieces for about 2 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the sweet and sour sauce over the chicken pieces in the baking dish.
- Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Stir the chicken about every 10-15 minutes for an even coating of the sweet and sour sauce.
- Serve the baked sweet and sour chicken over steamed rice, garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy!
