Firecracker Chicken

Firecracker Chicken

firecracker¼ cup canola oil

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Salt

Pepper

1 cup cornstarch

2 large eggs, beaten

Sauce:

3/4 Cup buffalo sauce (if you like more heat use hot sauce, like Frank’s brand)

1¼ cup packed light brown sugar

1 tablespoon water

2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.  In separate bowls, place cornstarch and slightly beaten eggs. Dip chicken into cornstarch then coat in egg mixture. I have also found that you can put the cornstarch in a gallon sized bag and shake the chicken to coat. Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned. Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish. In a medium sized mixing bowl, buffalo sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, water, salt and red pepper flakes. Pour over chicken and bake for 1 hour.
