Don's Sweet and Sour Chicken Recipe

INGREDIENTS:
2 to 4 skinless chicken breasts
1 large onion roughly chopped
2 bell peppers roughly chopped (one green, one red)
1 cup of broccoli florettes
1/2 cup of carrot chunks
1 large can of chunk pineapple (drain and SAVE the juice)
1/4-1/2 cup of brown sugar(can use reg. sugar)
Water/wine/white grape juice/orange juice etc. as needed for extra liquid
1 Tablespoon of cornstarch for every cup of liquid you end up with
hot sauce to taste, optional
salt and pepper to taste, optional
cinnamon, optional
allspice, optional
cloves, optional
curry powder, optional
PREPARATION:
Put chicken breasts in slow cooker or crockpot. Add the onion, peppers, broccoli, and carrots Whisk together until blended well, no lumps in sugar, liquids, spices, and cornstarch, and sugar. Pour over chicken.

If there is not enough juice, add whichever liquid you prefer to bring up to the desired level. (REMEMBER THOUGH: For each extra cup of liquid, stir in another Tablespoon of cornstarch before you pour it in the slow cooker) . Cover and cook 6 to 8 hours on LOW. I sometimes vary the recipe, using fruit cocktail and a bit less sugar, pineapple, or apricot preserves or orange marmalade works too. (no cornstarch needed when you used preserves, nor sugar of course. Use your imagination. Remember sweet and sour is basically a fruit juice and vinegar.

Answer 2

An easy sweet and sour sauce is 1 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup white wine vinegar, 1/4 cup of sugar, and an ounce of honey. You simply lightly bread your cut chicken pieces in any type of batter you like, (1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup corn startch, 2/3 cup soy sauce, minced garlic, or just add any spice you'd like. Fry in a frying pan in oil. Then place in another pan with whatever veggies or fruit(pineapple is always a good choice) you want to add. Pour the sweet and sour mixture over it, let cook until it starts to thinken up, and done, enjoy.
