No Fry General Tso’s Chicken

0 · Jan 27, 2014 · Stephanie Gerber · 4 Comments

Healthier General Tso's Chicken | Hello GlowLet’s face it, General Tso’s is the best darn thing on the Chinese takeout menu. We might deviate from it every now and then, ordering the chicken and string beans or vegetable lo mein when we’re trying to be healthier (if that’s even possible on a takeout Chinese menu). But when it comes down to it, that sticky, sweet, delicious sauce will not be forgotten and soon enough, it’s back in our takeout bag next to the fortune cookies.

Surprisingly, General Tso’s is actually simple enough to make at home! And since we’re doing that, we might as well make it a bit healthier too. There’s no frying going on here, but you still get that perfect crispy exterior, thanks to panko breadcrumbs and cornmeal. The ingredient list might look complicated but it’s easy – while the chicken is baking (gasp!) just whisk together the sauce.

    Love this Gina! I could use a lightened up version now that I’m rather obsessed with making it at home.

    I’ve never heard of General Tso’s chicken (not sure we have it in the UK?) but it looks and sounds absolutely incredible. Would love to give it a go!
