In a large bowl, whisk the large egg. Add the diced chicken breast, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the chicken is well coated. Let marinate for 5 minutes.

Add 5 tablespoons of cornstarch to the marinated chicken. Mix by hand until each piece of chicken is fully coated, ensuring a crispy exterior when cooked.

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Arrange the coated chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Air fry for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

While the chicken cooks, prepare the sweet and sour sauce. In a medium saucepan, bring 5/8 cup of water to a boil. Add the tomato ketchup, brown sugar, malt vinegar, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Stir well and cook for 2 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.

In a large pan or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for approximately 2 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened but still retain some crispness.

Pour the prepared sweet and sour sauce over the sautéed vegetables in the pan. Stir to combine.

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water to create a slurry. Add this slurry to the sauce and vegetable mixture in the pan. Stir continuously over medium heat until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

Add the cooked, crispy air-fried chicken pieces to the pan with the sweet and sour sauce and vegetables. Toss gently until all the chicken is thoroughly coated with the sauce.

Serve immediately over steamed white rice, as needed, for a complete meal.
