Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken Directions:
-
Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a 13 x 9-inch dark baking pan with parchment paper.
-
Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
-
Place cornstarch in a large zip-top bag, add chicken, and shake well to coat.
-
Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl.
-
Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
-
Dip chicken pieces in egg, then sear in the skillet until golden brown and crispy on all sides.
-
Transfer chicken to the prepared pan, spreading pieces in a close, compact single layer without gaps.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic powder, and sea salt.
-
Pour sauce evenly over chicken.
-
Bake uncovered for 1 hour, turning chicken gently at least twice to allow sauce to thicken and caramelize on the pieces, creating a sticky, darker glaze as in the image.
-
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
