Sweet And Sour Baked Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag or a glass 13x9-in. baking dish, combine first nine ingredients. Add chicken pieces; turn to coat. Cover or close bag and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Drain, discarding all but 1 cup marinade. Place chicken in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan; add reserved marinade. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1-1/4 hours or until juices run clear.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place eggs in a bowl. Combine cornstarch and garlic salt in a second bowl.
• Dip chicken in egg, then coat in cornstarch mixture.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken in the hot oil on all sides, sprinkling with onion salt, garlic salt, and pepper while frying, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Combine sugar, vinegar, ketchup, and soy sauce in a bowl.
• Place browned chicken in a 9x13-inch casserole dish and pour sauce over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 40 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper.
• Working in two batches, toss the chicken pieces in cornstarch and then coat with the egg.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat and again in two batches, brown the chicken, turning it so that all sides are browned but not cooked through.
• Place the chicken in a single layer in a foil lined 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Wisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
• Pour sauce evenly over the chicken and turn the chicken to ensure each piece is coated.
• Bake for 1 hour, turning the chicken every 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Make the sweet-and-sour sauce: Whisk the ketchup, marmalade, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger and cayenne in a small bowl. Put the bell peppers and scallions on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons of the prepared sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil and a pinch of salt.
• Heat the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Working in batches, add the chicken to the skillet skin-side down and cook, undisturbed, until the skin is golden and slightly crisp, about 4 minutes. Place skin-side up on the baking sheet with the vegetables.
• Brush the chicken with half of the remaining sweet-and-sour sauce. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes. Divide the chicken and vegetables among plates. Serve with rice and the remaining sauce.

Steps:

• Combine flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a shallow dish.
• Roll and coat chicken cubes in flour mixture.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
• Cook and stir chicken in hot oil until not longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes; remove and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the same skillet over medium heat.
• Cook and stir celery, green peppers, and onion in heated oil until slightly tender, about 5 minutes.
• Return chicken to the skillet.
• Whisk ketchup, lemon juice, pineapple, and brown sugar in a bowl; pour into the skillet; bring to a boil.
• Cook and stir chicken and vegetables in sauce until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish (or a larger baking dish or roaster if using more chicken and doubling sauce).
• In a medium saucepan, saute the onions, green pepper and carrots for about 3 minutes; add in the fresh garlic (if using), and saute for another 3 minutes.
• Stir in the ketchup, pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, salt, pepper and the ginger powder; stir with a spoon until all the ingredients are well mixed; bring to a light to a boil (at this point adjust all of the ingredients, adding in more to suit taste, and bring to a boil again for a couple of minutes).
• If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with cold water to make a thin paste, add to sauce and boil another minute.
• Add in the pineapple chunks/tidbits: set the sauce aside.
• In a large frypan, sprinkle the chicken with black pepper, and brown on both sides in oil until lightly browned (do not burn the skin!).
• Set the browned chicken pieces into the baking dish/roaster.
• Pour the sauce over the chicken; mix lightly to make sure the chicken is evenly coated with sauce.
• Bake uncovered for about 40 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked.
• Serve with or over rice -- delicious!
