Well I have been missing Chinese food and I found an absolutely awesome recipe for General Tso Chicken. I hate frying foods as I used to burn them or not cook things like chicken all the way through but burn the outside. I finally got frying foods best friend, a thermometer. So if you do not have one and want to make this, I would suggest you do as knowing what temperature the chicken is. Ok, it tastes just like take out but it is gluten free and no bad additives in the sauce. This chicken goes so well with cauliflower fried "rice".
What I loved about this recipe was how easy it was. Just marinate the chicken in an egg white marinade and then add to a bowl of tapioca flour etc and then fry! The sauce is easy to make as well. I would suggest doubling the sauce recipe.
I found this wonderful recipe at Jan's Sushi Bar Blog. You can find the General Tso Chicken recipe here.
I did not get a chance to take pics of the Cauliflower Fried "Rice" but I will share my rendition of the recipe.
I like to do things the easy way and if I can add everything to my blender or food processor, I will. So I did and takes so much chopping out the way!
