If you are asking if you could just cook the chicken bits in the wok instead of the deep fryer, yes. Make sure they are cooked to an internal tempurature of 165 degrees F.

Thank you for the recipe! We just made it for dinner, although we had to improvise a little. We couldn't find rice wine anywhere, so we substituted with dry white wine. We also didn't have dried chili peppers (although we did have fresh) so we used red pepper flakes instead. It was alright, but I wouldn't call it spicy. 1 lb of chicken is actually 4 servings, so we have leftovers :) Next time though, I think I'm going to double the amount of sauce. The only other problem we had was when deep frying, the chicken became stuck to the pan and part of the coating broke off as we tried to get them out. Did anyone else have this problem? Hi! Thank you for the recipe!

I think it's the corn starch...how do i get the sauce to not clump up?

It is impossible to find General Tso's here. So, when I saw you recipe, I figured I would give it a try. I made this last night for my wife and kids for dinner. The only thing that I did differently was added a teaspoon and a half of tomato paste to the sauce mix. It was delicious. It was also very easy to make. I am now living in the Philippines.

I have another recipe that I did years ago for a Pot Luck for Russell Stover Candies Corporate HQ; I was a Buyer in Purchasing there. The recipe was "Okay," but I was dissapointed in the sauce; it was too light in color as they asked for quite a bit of cornstarch in the sauce. However, this sauce looks simple, rich, and just like what you would order. I'm definitely trying this! Thank you! I'm a HUGE General Tso's Fan too!

It was good, although I don't have a wok. Cooked the chicken in peanut oil in cast iron. Finished the chicken off in the toaster over at 350 to make it crispy. I added a little more rice wine to knock the soy sauce back a bit... may substitute a 1/2 tsp of OJ next time for some of the soy sauce. Made this and was impressed.

I had to quadruple the sauce ingredients ( doubled the chicken too). Nevertheless still too little sauce but perhaps it was my fault. Coated the chicken afterwards in flour before frying, good hint. The recipe is great. Thank you! Best wishes from Germany! Made Tso’s chicken today for me and my friends and they loved it! I had to quadruple the sauce ingredients ( doubled the chicken too).
