Ingredients:  
Chicken

2 - 4 tablespoons canola oil
3 - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (2 lbs)
Salt and pepper
1 cup cornstarch
2 large eggs, beaten

Sauce

⅓ cup hot sauce (Franks or Texas Petes)
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
½ teaspoon salt

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325º F. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. While the oil is heating, cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Place the cornstarch in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Put the chicken into the bag with the cornstarch and seal, tossing to coat the chicken. Whisk the eggs together in a shallow pie plate. Dip the cornstarch-coated chicken pieces in the egg and place them carefully in a single layer in the hot skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes and then flip each piece over to cook on the other side until nicely golden but not all the way cooked through. Place in a single layer in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces. Mix the sauce ingredients together in a medium bowl and pour over the chicken in the baking dish. Bake for one hour, turning the chicken once or twice while cooking to coat evenly with sauce. Serve over hot, steamed rice.
