Sweet and Sour Chicken

Sweet and Sour Chicken



Ingredients
2/3 cups Brown Sugar
2/3 cups Apple Cider Vinegar
2/3 cups Ketchup
2 tblsp soy sauce
1 lb chicken (you can also use pork or shrimp if you like)
1 tbsp Canola Oil
5-6 cups White Rice (cooked0
1 medium Onion diced
1 medium green bell pepper julienned (i like using a trio of colors)
2 medium carrots diced
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 tsp ground ginger
8 oz can of pineapple

Step 1
In a small bowl combine the brown sugar, vinegar, ketchup and soy sauce. Pour 1/2 into a large ziplock bag.

Step 2
Cut the meat into small cubes and add to the ziplock bag with the marinade. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 3
After 30 minutes drain the meat and discard the marinade.

Step 4
Add meat to a large pan and cook for 3 minutes.

Step 5
Add all veggies, giner and garlic and saute until the meat is cooked thoroughly.

Step 6
Add the reserved marinade and boil.

Step 7
Add in the pineapple (drained) and cook for 1 minute.

Serve over white rice with chow mein noodles.

**UPDATE**

Make sure you store this seperate from the rice. The Sweet and Sour Chicken does re-heat well in the microwave at about 4-5 minutes per serving. To re-heat the rice well I take a spray bottle and spray the bottom of the empty bowl, then spray the top of the rice and add about a 1/2 tblsp of butterto rehydrate. Heat the rice about 3-4 minutes.

  2. Yes it is the same recipe! I had someone try this with turkey instead of chicken and they said it was very good!
