Sweet and Sour Chicken

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Poultry - Chicken

Delicious recipe. Take a while to make; however, it is not hard. Great for leftovers.

"Wow!! This was better at home than at the Thai restaurants... And probably healthier too, it tasted so good. I made enough sweet and sour sauce to save some. :) I couldn't believe I made it; it was THAT GOOD. Cant wait to make more of the sauce, I'm planning on making my own crab wontons soon."

To me it taste just as good as the thai restaurant's plate. My entire family loves it. I add garlic to this recipe as well and occasionally some chili garlic sauce for kick.
