Secondly, I seasoned the chicken breasts with salt and freshly cracked pepper before slicing them into bite-sized pieces, you can add more spices to your chicken but for me, basics are enough.

After that, I mixed the cornstarch and eggs, gently beaten, in a separate medium mixing bowl. And using this combination I dipped the chicken and coated it completely.

At this point, I cooked the chicken in a large pan with the canola oil over medium-high heat until it is browned. Once the chicken was done cooking, I transferred it to a 9 x 13-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.

Then, I added all of the ingredients for the sauce into a medium-sized mixing bowl and mixed until well-combined and smooth, and I baked the chicken for an hour with the sauce on top.

Every 15 minutes, I stirred the chicken to ensure that it was covered in the sauce.
