The Recipe Critic

INGREDIENTS

• 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.
2. In separate bowls, place cornstarch and slightly beaten eggs. Dip chicken into cornstarch then coat in egg mixture.
3. Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned. Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish.

5. I stirred the chicken every 15 minutes so that it coated them in the sauce

Sticky Sesame Chicken

Crumb
Amys review- the sauce was really thicker than I liked and thats what she said on her webpage they like thick sauce. I was hoping for a lighter flavor in the sauce. Next time I'll try a sweet and sour sauce instead, but my family all liked it.

The Chicken

• 3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped into 1.5 inch pieces
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 6 tablespoons flour
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 3 tablespoons corn starch
• 1T fish sauce
• sesame seeds
• 3-4 cups cooked white rice
• optional: fresh green onions, chopped

for the sauce

• 2/3 c honey
• 1/2c ketchup
• 1/4 c sugar
• 2 tablespoon brown sugar
• 4 tablespoons white vinegar
• 1/4 c(+1T) soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoon cold water + 4 tablespoons corn starch

1. Whisk all sauce ingredients together, set aside.
2. Place beaten egg, 3 tablespoons corn starch, and flour in three separate bowls. Dip chicken pieces in egg mixture, then flour (toss to coat), and lastly in corn starch (toss to coat). Heat oil over medium heat in a large pan or skillet. Add chicken and cook, stirring throughout to ensure even cooking, 5-10 minutes until cooked though.
3. Add sauce to your skillet and bring to a boil. Whisk cold water and 2 tablespoons corn starch together in a small bowl until corn starch is dissolved. Add corn starch mixture to skillet. Stir until sauce thickens. Serve over rice and top with sesame seeds and green onions. Enjoy!

Next time just bake all the dipped and coated chicken in the oven, I think it'd be alot faster and easier.

BBQ Sauce chicken

6 chicken drumsticks or thighs
1/3 cup salsa (but usually its ketchup)
1/3 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
4 teaspoons butter
2 teaspoons salt
1 t garlic powder
1/2t onion powder
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons chili powder, or to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). in 9x13 pan put foil down and spray. Place drumsticks in a baking dish, put butter plops on top of each and bake for 30-40 min.

Can prepare the sauce many days in advance and sit it in the fridge.  Whisk water, ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, butter, salt, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and chili powder together in a bowl; pour mixture over drumsticks. Cook for remaining  20min 

didn't cover with foil so it would thicken better. In the last 10 minutes (baked for an hour and 10) I poured the sauce from the pan into a small saucepan and reduced it on medium to thicken it up while the chicken got a little crisp on the top.  (I didn't do this last part)

12/9/15 it was excellent. everyone loved it!!!!  Next time double it for leftovers, it was so yummy.

Served with pasta and green beans.
