SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN
I love sweet and sour chicken but rarely find it exactly how I like it when I order it from restaurants so I came up with my own recipe. This isn't an authentic chinese recipe if that is what you're looking for but my kids and I love this. I always serve it over steamed white rice.
