Easy Sweet and Sour Chicken

  1. Cut up the chicken into bite-sized chunks.
  2. Combine ginger, egg white, about 1/2 teaspoons each salt and cornstarch, and about 1 teaspoon oil.
  3. Add the chicken chunks and stir until the chicken is well-coated.
  4. Wash green pepper.
  5. Discard seeds and stem.
  6. Cut into strips about 1 x 1/4 inches.
  7. Peel carrots.
  8. If they are thick, cut in half lengthwise.
  9. Cut diagonally into pieces about 1 inch long.
  10. Cook the carrots in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes, depending how crunchy you like your carrots.
  11. Drain pineapple chunks, saving about 1/2 cup of the juice.
  12. Prepare the sweet and sour sauce by mixing sherry, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, reserved pineapple juice, about 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and about 1 teaspoon salt.
  13. Stir well and set aside.
  14. Heat about 3 tablespoon of oil very hot in a wok or deep cast iron pan.
  15. Peanut oil is best since it has a high smoking point.

  17. Remove to a dish.
  18. Repeat until all the chicken has been cooked, adding small amounts of oil as it gets used up.
