Slow Cooker Sweet 'n Sour Chicken Over Rice Recipe

Thursday, May 14, 2009

Biggest Brother was spending his weekly wages at one of the local Chinese restaurants; so I decided it might be time for me to find a few chinese cruisine recipes before he went bankrupt at the age of 17.

Image my excitement when I found this slow cooker version of a favorite chinese dish. And I was even more surpised and delighted when it was a very good tasting recipe.
