Directions
Dave’s Sweet & Sour Chicken, This is my husband’s recipe for Sweet & Sour Chicken. You can substitute in pork or omit all meat references and then can the sauce for storage. Makes approx 1 quart of sweet and sour sauce., YUMMY! We really liked this. I left out the cherries and added half an onion. I didn’t use the full amount of brown sugar since we don’t like really sweet things. I served it over leftover white rice. This was a good one! Will make again and again. Made for PAC Fall 2009., I loved this sauce!!! I did however, cut the servings down to 3-4 which gave me just enough sauce for my family of three. I thought a quart would be too much unless I froze it but I prefer to make it fresh when I make this next time. (and there WILL be a next time!) When I changed the servings, the recipe called for 1/4 cup of lemon juice which I thought was too much so I only added a few Tbsp. and I also added 1/8 cup of cherries, an 8 oz can of pineapple (it was all I had) and I made the mistake of packing the brown sugar (and the recipe clearly does not state to do that) so that’s my fault and no fault of the recipe itself. So that made the sauce just a little too sweet. This sauce tastes exactly like the sauce I’ve had in restraunts. It’s THAT good! Thank’s so much for posting. This is one I’ll definately make again and again! It’s a keeper for sure!!
