Sweet N Sour Chicken

This is something we eat a few times a month, cause its goood!


Get yourself some: 

-1 pkg. frozen chicken tenderloins
-oil
-1 box instant rice (or use my instant pot rice recipe!)
-2 steamable frozen broccoli (or snow peas or whatever you like)
-green onions

For sweet-n-sour sauce:

-sugar
-water
-vinegar
-cornstarch
-little bit of ketchup (opt. for color)


Then take those items and: 


Cook your chicken in a pan with oil.

Cook your rice.

Steam that broccoli (or cook it how you like to).

Then boil 1/2 C water and 1/2  C vinegar and 3/4 C sugar (you can double this and freeze it).  Once boiling, I remove from heat and mix 1/4 C cornstarch with 1/4 water (whisk that shit so it's not lumpy--I use a butter knife to do this in the measuring cup).  Then add that cornstarch water into the pan, and voila!  Sweet-n-sour sauce.  I add a teeny bit ketchup for color, but its not needed.

Then I put all the first stuff together (broccoli, chicken, rice, and whatever I have on hand) and drizzle sauce over top and top with onions. EASIER.  THAN.  PIE.  Way easier, actually!  And tastier!

Well, really now, what's tastier than pie??
