Sweet and Sour Chicken

I found this post on this blog http://ericaskitchenadventures.blogspot.com/ I've been finding interesting recipes on this site. It was very good. Easy to put together. Then as it baked, I made the rice. A great replacement to take out.

Ingredients:
Chicken:3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper
1 c cornstarch
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 c canola oil

Sauce:
3/4 c sugar
4 T ketchup
1/2 c vinegar
1 T soy sauce
1 t garlic salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 325.
Cut boneless chicken breasts into chunks and season with salt and pepper.
Put the cornstarch into one bowl, and the eggs into another.
Roll the chicken pieces into the cornstarch, followed by the eggs. Heat the oil in a saucepan then add the covered chicken pieces and brown, but do not cook through. Place the chicken in a single layer in a baking pan.

Mix together the sauce ingredients and pour over the chicken. Bake for one hour, turning chicken every 15 minutes.

If you would like extra sauce, mix another batch of sauce ingredients and bring to a boil in a saucepan. Turn down to medium heat and continue to cook 6-8 minutes, until thicken and reduced. Stir constantly.

I served the chicken over white rice.
