Steps to make Economical, Healthy and Easy Sweet and Sour Chicken:
  1. Remove the skin and open up the thicker parts to make it all the same thickness. Cover with plastic wrap use the handle of a knife or a rolling pin to pound the meat. Remove the plastic wrap and pierce with a fork.
  2. Cut into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Put the chicken into a plastic bag and add 1/4 teaspoon (about 2 pinches) of sugar, 1 tablespoon each of soy sauce and sake, and 1 teaspoon of oil. Rub the seasoning into the meat for about 1 minute. Marinate for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, cut the vegetables. Cut the onion in half horizontally and cut into 6-8 slices. Thinly slice the thicker part of the carrot into pieces of the same size as the onion.
  5. Cut the shiitake, green pepper, and bamboo shoot to the same size of the onion.
  6. Combine the ★ ingredients.
  7. Prepare the katakuriko slurry.
  8. Add the ▲ ingredients to the plastic bag from Step 2 and gently coat each piece of chicken evenly.
  9. Fry the chicken in a good amount of oil until browned and crisp, then transfer to a dish. (If there are some burned areas left in the frying pan, wipe or wash it clean).
  10. Add a little bit of oil to the frying pan from Step 9 and quickly saute the green peppers. When the peppers are coated well with oil, transfer to the same plate as the chicken. It's okay if they aren't completely cooked.
  11. Add some more oil to the frying pan and saute the onion and carrots. Add the shiitake and bamboo shoot and continue sautéing.
  12. Once the oil has coated the vegetables, add the ★ mixture and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  13. Swirl in the katakuriko slurry and stir. Once it has thickened, add the chicken and green peppers. Let simmer and then season with salt and pepper. Done.
  15. (If you have some time available, deep fry the vegetables. In that case, skip Step 10.)
  16. It's easier to make if you prepare the dish until Step 6 the night before, cover it with plastic wrap, and store it in the refrigerator.

Add everything but the water and cornstarch to a saucepan. Sweet and Sour chicken is one of my favourite Chinese dishes, along with Peking duck, and Crispy Chilli Beef. However, I do tend to regret getting a takeaway when I'm sat on the sofa later feeling overly full, thirsty and generally unhealthy. The sweet and sour sauce is truly like what you get at good Chinese restaurants, but not tooth-achingly sweet. This is not a deep fried version of Sweet and Sour Chicken, it's a much healthier stir fry.
