This looks so good! As soon as I can leave this house after this silly storm, Issac, I am getting these ingredients. However, I have a picky girl. Is this spicy? I guess I could just use less red pepper flakes?
Hi Melissa! I didn’t find this dish to be particularly spicy, but if you’re unsure (I know how it is to have a picky kid, believe me), just leave out the red pepper. It will still be great without it! =) Also, taking care during the storm–how close are you? Be safe, and keep us posted.
I just looked through the pantry, because what else do I have to do, and I think I have everything to make this! And I have some chicken that needs to be cooked in case we lose power. Looks like this is dinner tonight! And I don’t expect this storm will be too bad, mostly a rain event. It’s not raining yet but very windy. Don’t believe the media hype, but as always prayers, mojo, whatever you got are appreciated!
Ashley, thank you so much! I’ve been looking for a lighter version of Gen Tsao’s Chicken. Can’t wait to try it. Looks delish:) Di{CookTheTV} Di recently posted..Breakfast Griddle Recipe Inspired by Paula Deen
I loooooove general tso’s chicken! There’s a place nearby that has an amazing version but omg, I don’t even WANT to imagine calories for that thing, so I never get it. This looks totally awesome–more veggies than that version, still a delicious, glazy-sauce to go on top AND low-cal. You can make this for me for dinner anytime, girl π Hayley @ The Domestic Rebel recently posted..Pumpkin Butterscotch Cupcakes with Biscoff Marshmallow Frosting

It was a hit!! My girls (7 and 9) even asked for seconds!!! My picky husband had seconds, too! My son, well….he ate the chicken (has to pick out anything with color) and said it was great. Will definitely be making again!! Pinning it now.
Looks amazing!

Yummy – always the first thing I look for when we go out for Chinese.

Making this for dinner tonight (along with the fried rice). Can’t wait!!
I hope you like the dinner, Andrea! It’s one of our faves!

I am just getting into cooking Chinese dishes and this looks like one that I’m definitely going to try.

I made this for dinner tonight, and it is delicious! My family wants me to make it again. Thanks so much for a terrific recipe.
what is the serving size ? I need to know so I know whether to double or triple the recipie. I have a family of 11 to feed and we all love Chinese.
So sorry about that. It serves four.
