Sweet and Spicy Chicken

TINY SPICY CHICKEN
Servings: 4-6

1 cup flour
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. ginger (opt)
dash each of cayenne pepper and paprika
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts diced into bite-sized pieces
3 tbsp oil for frying
Spicy Sweet N Sour Sauce (recipe follows)

Combine all dry ingredients. Coat chicken and discard excess flour mixture.

Stir fry in oil in wok or fry pan (stir often to keep from sticking if using a fry pan) cook just until done.

Cover with sauce recipe below and cook until slightly thickened.

SPICY SWEET N SOUR SAUCE
(also good for egg rolls and wontons, fried shrimp, etc.)
Makes about 1 cup

1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. lemon juice
15 to 30 drops Tabasco sauce
(Taste at 15, and every five thereafter to avoid making it too hot, the vinegar flavor disappears when mixed with the chicken, go by the spicy flavor it leaves....I use about 25.)

Combine all in pan until well dissolved.

I generally double the sauce because Ry likes extra to put on his rice.
