A plate of take-out General Tso's Chicken is usually made with deep fried chicken thighs and lots of sugar. Swapping dark meat for white meat, lightly wok sauteeing in place of deep frying, and cutting out the extra sugar, since hoisin is sweet enough, worked out great. It's sweet, savory, sour and every bit as addictive as the restaurant version. The chicken is crispy without being overly breaded (my usual complaint when it comes to General Tso's), while the sauce is thick and syrupy, just like it should be.
Instructions to make General tso's chicken and fried rice:
- Cover your chicken pieces in salt, pepper, egg and cornstarch set aside.

- In a separate pan on med-high coat the bottom with sesame oil and canola oil. Cook the egg and onions first then add the cold rice.
- Stir in soy sauce till rice mixture is fully covered. Cook for 3 mins or until desired crispiness
- Once chicken is finished, add to a separate pan with onions and broccoli. Cook on high and slowly mix in the sauce.
- Plate and enjoy!🤗🤗
