Healthy Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken

This week we also had Kellie and Reza over for Dinner on Wednesday so that we could carve our pumpkins.  We didn't plan to wait until the last day before Halloween to carve them but we were both so busy it ended up getting pushed back quite a lot!  This is an amazingly good recipe that is very easy but takes a long time to bake.  Although it isn't the healthiest recipe ever, it is about the healthiest sweet and sour chicken you can get! The sauce is very watery initially but as it bakes it will thicken up.  This is definitely one of our favorite recipes to make with fried rice, or just regular rice!
