Lemon Chicken Chinese Style

We always loved lemon chicken in chinese restaurants and my cousin found this recipe which is at least as good as the lemon chicken you find in most restaurants. It is sweet and tangy and is great served with rice or chinese noodles and stir-fried vegetables.

Steps

Dip chicken pieces into 2 beaten eggs.
Mix cornstarch , salt and pepper and dip the chicken in the cornstarch mixture.
Fry in small amount of oil in frying pan.
Put into a casserole dish.
Make sauce: saute the lemon and onion in the oil until onion is soft.
Add the sugar , vinegar , and pineapple juice.
In a separate bowl , mix the corn starch , water , and soy sauce , then add to the sauce.
Cook until clear and thick.
Pour on chicken in the casserole dish.
Cover and cook at 300 for 30 minutes or until done.
