General Tso Chicken Recipe
Hope everyone had a great day.. Today’s recipe is gonna be the easiest chicken dish. This is also called as Governor Tso's chicken in many areas. The key factor in this dish is the frying of the chicken. You should fry the chicken in low heat for first 5 mins then increase the heat to a high and fry it till the chicken is crispy and tender. Then toss the chicken in the sauce and serve immediately. Hope you all will give this a try and let me know what you think.

I want to eat this for lunch!!! THIS LOOKS SO YUMMY!!!!!!!!!! Making this yourself instead of a restaurant I am sure is healthier for you. Plus you get to make as much as you want and have it for left overs! You think it would work with shrimp??
Aarthi
Hai dear thanks for your comment..You could surely try this with shrimp or fish..

this looks soo goood. I love sweet n spicy chicken. Unfortunately, my husband ain't a fan of it :(. So i always order it for myself, when we dine out. I think i'm going to make this when I've got something else for him as leftover :).
