Extreme Low Fat Sweet-And-Sour Skillet Chicken

For a very low-fat dish this is really good, it has virtually no fat as the chicken stock is substituted for oil, and you won't miss the oil at all! You can double the sauce ingredients if desired

SERVES 2 -4 (change servings and units)

    I've made this many, many times. It freezes very well, so I use it for OAMC too. Just omit the veggies for freezing, and add them on cooking day. So very delicious over brown rice! I add thinly sliced carrots too, and about a tsp of fresh grated ginger.

    Excellent! We have leftover chicken so we sauted the vegetables in broth, then added cooked chicken. Definately a keeper. Thanks

    Really good. I left off the celery and used crushed pineapple. Served it over brown rice and this was easy and tasty.
