Sweet and sour chicken

Sweet and Sour Chicken or Sweet Sour Chicken is an American Chinese cuisine dish or appetizer. The chicken are essentially white meat chicken fingers deep-fried in batter. Unlike sweet and sour pork, this dish does not have a Chinese cuisine counterpart in the Far East. It is almost exclusive to North America, although it may sometimes be found in restaurants in East and Southeast Asia in an essentially identical version. British Chinese restaurants also serve Sweet and Sour Chicken.

It is generally served with sweet and sour sauce, sometimes topped off with pineapples, green peppers and cherries.
