It should take 3-5 minutes to thicken to the perfect consistency. 5 In a separate skillet add a little peanut oil and briefly cook the veggies. You just want to cook them just a little bit so that they aren't completely raw (about 3-4 minutes) 6 Add veggies and pineapple to sauce and keep on warm temperature 7 Now to prepare the chicken - combine the batter ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. 8 Heat peanut oil to high temperature. 9 Dip the pieces of chicken into the batter and cover them in the batter. After they are covered in batter, cook them for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown You may want to work in batches. 10 When chicken is nice and crispy transfer to a plate lined with paper towels (to soak up any excess oil). Grab a plate and combine the white rice and chicken.....pour sweet & sour sauce on top. Pour as much as you want - it's delicious!View original recipe
