Awesome recipe... just used the chicken thighs. I wished there were a suggested amount of red pepper flakes to add ( I added 1 tbs )... too hot for me... just right for the hubby! All in all... great copy cat recipe for general tsos chicken! Thanks for the recipe!
Flavor was more sweet than spicy but definitely had an asian taste:) I used boneless skinless chicken breasts instead and added a red pepper cut up into chunks in the last 3 mins of cooking and finished off with sesame seeds for presentation. Good flavor but lacking something savory in the sauce.
I love this recipe! I also boned the chicken and only used leg & thigh meat as I used to have this recipe from an old Chinese cookbook that I can no longer find and the white meat seemed to always be too dry. I also used veg oil for frying added minced garlic along with the ginger and omitted the red pepper flakes. Thanks for posting!
I used thighs and added zest and juice from 2 oranges
This was very nice and tasty flavour a bit strong though
This is awesome but make sure to use sriracha or another spicy type of chili sauce. I used a sweet Asian chili sauce and it was still good but with the honey and the other sweet flavors I think it would have been better with a spicy sauce!
Really great recipe. I used sliced chicken breasts chili oil and added a little extra honey and ginger. I also added some cashew nuts as well. The heat from the chili was just right and the honey just gave it that sticky texture I love. This is definitely going to be a go to recipe for me from now on.
We made this with boneless chicken strips, but it turned out really great. We served over homemade fried rice. Yum!
I didn't care for the sauce- it was sweet gooey and overpowered by the chili sauce.
