We love General Tso's Chicken but I cannot order it out because I have a wheat allergy. This is an easy, delicious recipe that tastes just like takeout that I remember. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons splenda sugar substitute |
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar |
3/4 up chicken broth, canned |
2 tablespoons splenda sugar substitute (or regular sugar) |
3 tablespoons soy sauce lachoy is wheat free |
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar |
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
pam cooking spray (you may substitute vegetable oil) |
4 scallions, chopped |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes |
2 medium boneless skinless chicken breasts (uncooked) |
rice |
Directions:
1. Whisk together broth, Splenda (or sugar), soy sauce, vinegar and ginger.
2. Set aside.
3. Wait until just before pouring over the meal to add in the cornstarch. (Otherwise it gets gloopy and slugdy.).
4. Spray a wok or non-stick skillet liberally with Pam (or drizzle in some vegetable oil to coat the bottom).
5. Add scallions, garlic and red pepper flakes.
6. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
7. Add chicken and brown.
8. Use more spray (or oil) if necessary to assist with the browning. Cook about 5-8 minutes.
9. The chicken should be almost done before you add the sauce.
10. Add cornstarch to your sauce bowl (put together in step one) and whisk to create a slurry.
11. Add to your chicken in the pan and heat until boiling, then reduce to a simmer.
12. The boiling of the sauce will cause the cornstarch to thicken.
13. Serve over rice.
