Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Pour the oil in a 9X13 baking dish and place in the oven while it's preheating to get very hot.
Step 2
Whisk the egg in a medium bowl. Add the chicken pieces and stir to coat well.
Step 3
In a large bowl, with enough room to move and coat chicken well, combine the cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Use a fork transfer the chicken pieces, letting the excess egg drip off, to the cornstarch mixture. Use a fork to coat the pieces all over with the cornstarch. TIP: At this point, I use my hands to separate the chicken and make sure they are coated.
Step 4
Carefully remove the hot dish and oil from the oven. Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer. Bake for 5 minutes. Toss in oil, and then bake for 5 minutes more. Meanwhile, whisk together all the ingredients for the sweet and sour sauce in a small bowl.
Step 5
Remove from the oven and REDUCE OVEN TEMPERATURE TO 325ºF.
Step 6
Add the peppers and sweet and sour sauce to the dish. Toss to combine. Bake for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until sauce has thickened and chicken is cooked through. Serve immediately.
