General Tso's Chicken

In my last post I was getting ready to go to my book club meeting and we were doing cheese tasting due to the book we just read and I promised to share my favorite cheese of the night.  There were so many good cheeses that I just have to share several with you, if you are looking for yummy french cheese try: Port Salut, Spo Ovalie Cendree Herve Mons, and Florette Goat Brie.  Onto the recipe, I recently found and adapted this recipe and was very pleased with the outcome.  It is a healthy and simple version of the ever so tasty General Tso's Chicken.  I also added roasted broccoli and served it over brown rice.  This was a perfect quick weeknight meal.

Serves 4

The Ingredients
1 tsp sesame oil
1 egg white
5 tbls soy sauce, divided
5 tbls corn starch, divided
1 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bit size pieces
2 tbls olive oil
1 cup chicken stock
2 tsp chili garlic sauce
1 1/2 tbls sugar
2 cloves garlic, pressed
2 tbls ginger, grated
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Rice, cooked

The Process

In a bowl combine sesame oil, egg white, 1 Tbls soy sauce, 4 Tbls cornstarch. Whisk until smooth (make take a minute). Add the chicken, tossing to coat. Let sit for 20 minutes.

In a liquid measuring cup mix together chicken stock, ginger, chili garlic sauce, sugar, 4 Tbls soy sauce, 1 Tbls cornstarch, and garlic. Whisk until combined. Set aside.

In a large skillet heat 2 Tbls canola oil over high heat. Slowly add the chicken. Cook for about 3 minutes aside, until cooked through. Remove from pan, cover with foil, and set aside.

Add the soy sauce mixture to the pan, heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. It should start to chicken, and turn glossy. Add the chicken back to the pan. Stir until coated. Remove from heat. Serve over white rice, garnish with green onions.
