Firecracker Chicken

So I love sweet and spicy meals and this just hits it right on the head.  It reminds me of my sesame chicken with a little kick.  With that being said this dish is amazing but not to spicy to where my kids wouldn't eat it.  It was perfect and this will become a regular in my house hold.

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks

1/4 Teaspoon Salt and Pepper

1/2 cup cornstarch

2 large eggs, beaten

1/4 cup vegetable oil

• 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
• 1/2 cup buffalo sauce, or more, to taste
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 Tablespoon Water

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9x13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
To make the sauce, whisk together sugar, buffalo sauce, vinegar, salt, red pepper flakes and 1 tablespoon water in a large bowl; set aside.
In a large bowl, season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in cornstarch and gently toss to combine. Working one at a time, dip the chicken into the eggs.
Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; discard excess oil.
Add chicken to prepared baking dish. Top with buffalo sauce mixture. Place into oven and bake until the sauce has thickened, about 45 minutes, turning over every 15 minutes to evenly coat the chicken.
Serve immediately.
