Sweet & Sour Chicken

I am allllll about quick & easy meals during the summer AKA baseball season at my house. With 3 boys & 1 girl, I am gone ALLLLLLLL the time.

This one is easy to put together, can cook in my crock pot all day while I run around, and yet tastes sooo yummy!


2 Tbsp. ketchup
1 c. water
1/2 c. white vinegar
1 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
1 c. brown sugar
1 1/2 lbs. chicken breasts cut into chunks
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
2 Tbsp. water

Add first 5 ingredients. Put chicken in crock pot. Cover with sauce. Cook on low 6-8 hours, high 3-4 hours. When it is ready & has reached temperature combine cornstarch & water* in small bowl. Stir in slow cooker & cook on high for 15-20 minutes. Stir often until thick.

* I couldn't find my cornstarch so I left this part out. It was very good but would be even better with the sauce!!!!! I would serve this with broccoli normally but my kids love love love corn and I was in a hurry.
