My favorite Sweet and Sour Chicken

Cooking from a seasoning packet is not the same as cooking from a box, is it? Tonight I made Sweet and Sour Chicken from Sun.Bird.

What you need:
Sun.Bird Sweet and Sour packet
1 1/2 pounds chicken or pork cut into strips
1/4 and 1tbsp corn starch (seperated)
1/4 and 1 1/2 cup water (seperated)
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp oil
1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
1 onion, cubed
2 carrots, diagonally sliced
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup atsup
1 can pinneapple chunks, drained
3 cups of cooked rice.

*Mix 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 cup of water, and soy sauce. And pork/chicken to mix and let soak for 5 minuets, coating chicken/pork with mix.
*Heat oil in pan. Add pork/chicken and stir-fry until browned, remove from pan.
*Stir-fry veggies, then add pork/chicken in with veggies.
*Mix seasoning, 1 tbsp cornstarch, sugar, catsup and 1 1/2 cups of water. Blend well. Ad to pork/chicken and veggies mixture and simmer for 5 min or until thickened.
*Add pineapple and heat.
*Serve over cooked rice.

I love sweet and sour chicken and pork. One of my favorite things to make. It is so good. And if I could figure out how to get pictures up on here I would...maybe next time. But really, its good. Give it a try.

to add pics:
when you are writing your post in the tool box there is a little link that looks like a picture. Click on that and it will allow you to upload from your computer or from the web so as long as your pics are downloaded you should be able to get them up. Hope this helps!

Also this recipe looks delish :)
