Easy Chili Chicken

This dish is as good as take-out and it will take less time than going out to pick up your order!

Quidee came up with this recipe when she was basically a kid and has honed it over the years. It is sweet, tangy and spicy. The fried bites of chicken are soft and tender. And if there are any left overs, you will be eating them out of the fridge even time you walk by.chillichicken

You can serve this as a meal with rice, or a bottle of toothpicks as a killer appetizer! I tried this recipe with pork loin strips instead of chicken and it was the tastiest meal we had all week.
