Stir in the remaining cup stock, the 1/4 cup lemon juice, and the 1/4 cup apple juice. Bring to a boil, whisk in the cornstarch, and return to a boil. Return the chicken to the skillet, lower the heat to medium, and cook 4 to 5 minutes, until the chicken is done all the way through. Remove the chicken and whisk in the sugar if desired.
