Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 F degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the chicken and gently toss making sure each piece of chicken is coated in cornstarch.
- Dip a few pieces of the chicken into the egg and gently toss the chicken around making sure they are coated completely in egg.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet, start with about 1/4 cup. Add a few pieces of chicken at a time and cook just until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes. You will have to do this in batches until done. Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined plate and discard excess oil.
- To make the sweet and sour sauce whisk all the sauce ingredients together in a large bowl.
- Add the chicken pieces to the prepared baking dish and pour about 2/3 to 3/4 of the sauce over the chicken and toss so that each piece is coated in the sauce.
- Bake the chicken for 45 minutes, turning it over after 15 minutes.
- Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Use the remainder of the sauce for dipping.
