Original Tender Youlinji (Chinese Deep Fried Chicken with Sweet and Sour Sauce) made with Chicken Breasts

Chicken & Pork Meatballs! Sweet and Sour Sauce Chicken & Pork Meatballs! Sweet and Sour Sauce
I saw some ground chicken breast on sale! Chicken has a pretty light flavor to it, so when I decided to change half of the meat to pork, I ended up with especially tasty meatballs!This meaty and hearty dish lets you enjoy the taste of chicken without the greasiness of an all-pork recipe.If you like your meatballs chock-full of meat, reduce the amount of onions.If your onion seems to be on the watery side, make sure to squeeze the moisture out after chopping.After pouring the sauce onto the meatballs, simmer well to get rid of the acidity from the ketchup and vinegar.These are also good without doubanjiang!

Fried Chicken Sweet N' Sour Sauce with Tartar Fried Chicken Sweet N' Sour Sauce with Tartar
I made it with slightly spicy sweet n' sour sauce. In Miyagi prefecture, they dredge the meat in katakuriko dipped in egg. The fluffy inside will surprise you.A hint is to prepare the chicken meat and to season it well... When frying, make sure to add enough oil so that it comes up to half of the height of the chicken I personally like tartar sauce, but eat with whatever sauce you prefer. For reference, the tartar sauce is made by combining 1 boiled egg, minced onion, minced cucumber, 2-3 tablespoons mayonnaise, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, and salt, and pepper, and a pinch of parsley.
