▢4 Chicken breasts boneless, skinless chicken breasts
▢Salt and pepper to taste
▢1 1/2 cup cornstarch
▢3 eggs beaten
▢1/4 cup canola oil
▢1 cup granulated sugar
▢4 tablespoons ketchup
▢1/4 cup white vinegar
▢1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
▢1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
▢1 teaspoon garlic salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.
In separate bowls, place cornstarch and slightly beaten eggs. Dip chicken into cornstarch then coat in egg mixture.
Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned. Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish.
In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine sugar, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic salt. Pour over chicken and bake for 1 hour.
I stirred the chicken every 15 minutes so that it coated them in the sauce.
