Breaded Chicken with Mango Sauce

This recipe is similar to a sweet and sour chicken but I'm using my new version of Mango sauce instead..My husband loves mango juice so much and one time he picked up the wrong bottle that turned out to be a mango sauce. He quickly found out mango sauce is not for drinking. So I tried using in this recipe and we both love it!
(Makes approximately 4-6 servings)

Ingredients
1 egg white
3 large boneless chicken breasts, cut into one inch chunks
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 onion diced
A pinch of pepper and salt
1 cup all purpose flour
Vegetable oil (for deep fryer)
1 green or red bell pepper, cut into 1 inch slices
1 tsp of vinegar (optional)
green onion (optional)
Approximately 2 cups mango sauce
1 tbsp Worcestershire or soy sauce
1 pinch of garlic

Procedure
1. In a bowl, marinate chicken in salt, pepper, and soy sauce for 10 minutes. Add all purpose flour, cornstarch and eggs to marinating chicken.

2.Heat cooking oil in a pan and fry the chicken cubes until cooked through. Transfer the chicken onto a plate lined with paper towels to soak up excess oil.

3. Place diced onion in frying pan. Cook only long enough to heat; remove to retain crispness. Remove the onion and add green bell pepper to frying pan. Remove from pan before softening occurs to retain crispness.

4. Saute garlic, vinegar, and mango sauce. After a few quick stirs mix back in the onion and green bell pepper.

5. Stir fry until the aroma from sauce is fairly strong.

6. Toss in the chicken and some chopped green onion.

Serve hot with rice and enjoy!
