Today's blog will be covered by the tempting topic of Sweet Sour Chicken Strip. For a healthier option, i pan-fried the chicken strip rather than chunks every pieces of chicken into a deep frying oil. Well for me, i will feel guilty whenever i have munched on fried food, oh...fatness, cholesterol!! Too exaggerating? Haha... I am that kind of person. Sometimes i will go for oily food, but, once in a while!
All you need is patience to cook this dish, small heat is required in this cooking process, we don't want a medium-rare chicken - 3 minutes on each side. Somemore, be ready to not clean your kitchen floor before cooking this dish, ticks for oily floor :p
