How to Cook Deep-Fried Chicken with Sweet and Sour Sauce

Last week, I cooked this Chinese dish, deep-fried chicken with savory soy sauce for dinner. In Japan, it is called yurinchi (油淋鶏). The deep-fried chicken was so crispy and juicy, and the sauce was spicy and savory. My husband and I really loved it. :) I'm going to share how to cook it with you.
