Six Sisters Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken

This wonderful recipe come from the Six Sisters and it is heavenly.  If you love going out for Chinese, this is a great way to have that restaurant flavor right at home.

 You are going to cut your chicken into good sized bite-size chunks.  Try to make them uniform in size so they cook evenly.  Some of my little pieces cooked to much and were tough. Dredge them in the cornstarch and then roll in the beaten egg.
Fry up in the oil just until browned all around!
I like to make sure there is only one layer of chicken rather than having them on top of each other.  Pour the sauce all over the top. Put in the oven to bake. I turn my pieces over about half way through the cooking time.   MMMMM  it smells so good.
The finished product.  It is yummy and sticky and so flavorful!

Dish it up with some rice and whatever other things you love from your trips to your favorite Chinese restaurants.  I have served it with fried rice and it is simply divine.  Enjoy
