1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/3 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed

SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN

Instead of deep-frying chunks of chicken, this streamlined take on an American Chinese restaurant favorite opts for stir-frying it. Sweetness comes from pineapple chunks and juice, plus a touch of brown sugar, while rice wine vinegar delivers that pleasing sour punch.

1/4 cup chicken broth
4 teaspoons cornstarch, mixed with 4 teaspoons water

  • Heat a bit of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove chicken to a baking sheet and place in preheated oven for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, clean out the frying pan and bring an inch or so of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the beans and carrots and cook until just tender. Drain and set aside. While vegetables are cooking, mix together all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. (*Alternately, you could cook the vegetables in a covered bowl in the microwave, if you prefer).
  • Heat a bit of oil over medium heat in the frying pan. Add the onion and red pepper and cook, stirring, until just softened. Add the sauce, vegetables and cooked chicken to the pan. Allow to simmer, stirring regularly, until sauce thickens.
