preparation
step 1
I know, they seem a lot of ingredients but I assure you that the sauce that comes out is delicious! I leave you the choice of spiciness, adjust according to your tastes. I advise you to do it at the moment, I have never tried to keep it.
step 2
Let's start by preparing the sweet and sour sauce. In the saucepan we gather all the ingredients except water and cornstarch. We heat over medium heat stirring with a wooden spoon until the sugar dissolves well.
step 3
Dissolve the cornstarch in water aside, add it to the sauce. Let simmer for 2 minutes, until you get a thick cream. We turn off and leave aside.
step 4
Cut the chicken breast into chunks. We clean the pepper and cut into chunks slightly larger than those of the chicken. Bread the chicken with a teaspoon of cornstarch, inside a small bowl. We cover each morsel well.
step 5
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick pan and let the chicken cook. Separately, cook the bell pepper over a high heat. We have to create a golden crust on the chicken.
step 6
Combine the sauteed pepper, salt and pepper. Let's cook another 2 minutes before adding the sauce. Let's medium heat for another 2 minutes, then turn off and let stand a few minutes before serving.
