Sweet & Sour Chicken

Okay ladies...I told you I don't use recipes very often, so here are the ingredients that I use when I make sweet & sour chicken. I will try to give approximate measurements, but when I cook I just add things until it tastes good.

Chicken, cut in bite-size pieces
Canned pineapple (I like crushed)
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. vinegar
2 tbsp. soy sauce
2 tbsp. House of Tsang Korean Stir Fry Sauce
garlic salt
1 bell pepper, sliced
2 carrots, sliced
a few tbsp. cornstarch mixed with a few tbsp. cold water

Season chicken with a little garlic salt, soy sauce, and stir fry sauce and brown in a little bit of oil. When chicken is about half way done, add sliced carrot and cook together. Once chicken is done, add bell pepper, pineapple, vinegar and brown sugar. Taste the liquid at this point to see if you need more sugar, vinegar or seasonings. Simmer in liquid for a few minutes to cook pepper until it is tender but still crisp. Mix cornstarch with cold water and add to sauce to thicken. Serve over hot rice, we like sticky rice.
