Sweet & Sour Chicken

Finally!

My quest to become a globally-inspired foodie has hit a landmark milestone!

I've finally figured out Sweet & Sour Chicken.

Ok, so that might not exactly be something that gets you all excited on a Wednesday morning, but it sure is for me.  This staple of Chinese restaurants is one of my full-on guilty pleasures.  So sweet, it feels like your eating dessert first, this chicken is actually a rarity in my home because up until now, I could never make it quite the way I wanted.  Something was alluding me.

Now that I've got my Funnel Cake Chicken and some spot-on sauce to go with it, I can start focusing on some of my other favorite Chinese dishes!




Sweet & Sour Chicken

1 batch Funnel Cake Chicken

Sweet & Sour Sauce:
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp soy sauce


Prepare the funnel cake chicken as directed.

In a saucepan, combine the sauce ingredients and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, letting the sauce thicken.

Serve chicken with sauce on the side.
