SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN STIR FRY
This bright and colourful stir fry is made with a classic Sweet & Sour Sauce which is truly like what you get at good Chinese restaurants. This is not made by deep frying the chicken - it's tasty enough as it is without adding more calories!! Also see Baked version of the fried Sweet & Sour Chicken - recipe here. I know 1/2 cup of sugar sounds like a lot, but it works out at 1 1/2 tbsp per serving, which isn't too bad!

TARO-COATED CHICKEN WITH TROPICAL SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat fryer to 350 degrees F.
- In a mixing bowl, pour the boiling water with the cornstarch and mix well with a wooden spoon. Add the taro and mash in well, but do not over mix to a smooth puree. Add the ham, scallions, lard and season. Check for seasoning. Season the chicken and place skin side down. Pat on a 1/2-inch layer of taro on the meat side. Coat both sides with cornstarch and fry until golden brown and the chicken is done, about 6 to 8 minutes. Season lightly and drain on paper towels. Cut each breast in half on the bias.
- In a large saucepan coated lightly with oil on medium heat, saute the onions, carrot, garlic, ginger, and chiles. Stir and season. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the pineapple, mango and citrus juices/zest. Bring to a boil and simmer for a 20 percent reduction, about 15 minutes. Check for seasoning.
SWEET AND SOUR TROPICAL STIR FRY CHICKEN
My mother brought a bunch of grapefruits last weekend, and, honestly, I'm not a big fan of grapefruit unless it's loaded with sugar. I scoured the internet and my cookbooks for ideas of how to incorporate grapefruit into a main dish and came up with this recipe. You can sub your favorite sweet and sour sauce.
