How to Make Sweet N Sour Sauce For Meatballs Or Chicken
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon seasoning salt until smooth.
- Stir in 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned), 1/2 cup white vinegar, and 1/2 cup water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to low, maintaining a gentle simmer. Cook and stir for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and 2 tablespoons cherry juice.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes, or until the pepper is tender-crisp.
- **For Meatballs:** Pour sauce over your favorite cooked meatballs in a casserole dish or skillet. Heat through gently, stirring occasionally.
- **For Chicken:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 13x9x2 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Pour sauce evenly over the chicken.
- Cover and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Uncover during the last 10 minutes of baking to allow the sauce to caramelize slightly.
