Sweet and Sour Chicken

This is in our family's top 5 favorite dinners. We LOVE this meal, and it's really easy.

4 breasts of chicken
1 T. oil
1 carrot, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 c. sugar
4 T. cornstarch
1 1/3 c. water
3 T. oil
2/3 c. vinegar
4 T. soy sauce
1 onion, chunked
1/2 red pepper, diced
1/2 green pepper, diced
1 small can diced pineapple
Cooked rice

Cut chicken into 1-inch cubes. Sauté in oil with carrot and garlic until no longer pink. Remove from heat, cool. Combine sugar and cornstarch in saucepan. Stir in water. Add oil, vinegar, and soy sauce. Cook and stir until thick and clear. Remove from heat. Stir together chicken, sauce, veggies, and pineapple. Serve in bowls over hot rice. We like to buy fortune cookies to eat afterwards. ;)
