Sweet and Sour Chicken

Sweet & Sour Chicken

4 chicken breast halves
1 T oil
1 carrot, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup sugar
4 T cornstarch
1 1/3 cups water
3 T oil
2/3 cup vinegar
4 T soy sauce
1 onion, chunked
1/2 red bell pepper, chunked
1/2 green bell pepper, chunked
1 small can pineapple chunks

Cook chicken and cut into 1 inch cubes. Saute carrots in garlic and oil. (If you are using boneless skinless chicken breasts, you can cut them into cubes and cook them with the carrots.) In another sauce pan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in water. Add oil, vinegar, and soy sauce. Cook and stir until thick and clear. Remove from heat. Add chicken, carrots, vegetables, and pineapple. Cook just long enough for vegetables to start to be tender. ****If you are freezing this recipe, do not cook with the vegetables in it. Stir everything together, let it cool and then freeze.*****
