Sweet and Sour Baked Chicken

This is now one of my all time favorite recipes I think it's one of Ben's too. I love good Chinese food. I am really happy with this recipe and didn't think it was too difficult. Also, When I made it I cut the following recipe in half. It was the perfect amount  for the two of us. We didn't have any rice or anything with it so take that into account. 

The Chicken

3-4 boneless chicken breasts
salt + pepper to taste
1 cup of cornstarch (more as needed)
2 eggs beaten
1/4 cup oil

The Sweet and Sour Sauce

3/4 cup sugar
4 Tbsp. Ketchup
1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp garlic powder

Preheat oven to 325ยบ. Rinse chicken with cold water and cut into cubes. Pour oil into pan to begin heating. Put cornstarch in one bowl and the eggs in another. Dip chicken into cornstarch then eggs then set in pan. You don't want the chicken to completely cook you just want it to be a nice golden brown on each side. When they are ready transfer onto greased 9x13 baking pan. In a bowl add together all of the sweet and sour sauce ingredients and mix together. Pour over chicken. Bake for 1 hour turning chicken every 15 minutes.

Enjoy!
