Shix cooks: Chinese Style sweet & sour Chicken

This easy sticky chicken is awesome!

Prep time: 1h 15 min

Cooking time: 30 min

Ingredients:

Part A:

500g chicken fillet cubed

2 tbsp corn flour

1 egg

2 cloves garlic (chopped)

Salt & pepper to taste 

Oil for pan frying

Part B:

4 cloves garlic (chopped)

1 thumb sized lump of ginger

1/4 cup tomato or chilli sauce

2 tbsp soy sauce 

1/2 cup cider vinegar

3/4 cup sugar

Method:

In a bowl, mix the chicken, corn flour, egg, garlic and salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside for an hr to allow the chicken to marinade. 

In a pan, put in just enough oil to cover the base and fry the chicken. Wait for the chicken to brown slightly on both sides before leaving it to rest. Remember not to overcrowd your pan to allow it to crisp. 

Once all the chicken is cooked, put the garlic and ginger into the pan to allow it to fry in the chicken oil. Once done, add in the rest of the items. 

Wait for the sauce to bubble before adding the chicken. Mix it up till it's nice and coated then turn off the flames. 

Serve with rice over a bed of greens.
