Directions
5-Minute General Tsos Chicken, Tastier and faster than takeout, this homemade version uses frozen chicken tenders as a time-saving hack., It was delicious — it’s a streamlined recipe, but it took longer than I thought the first time–definitely not 5 or 10 minutes, more like 45. But I can see with practice it could get quicker, (esp. If you use already peeled garlic and have you sesame seeds already roasted.) Mine was a little too vinegar-y but I admit I had no honey and used agave as a sweetner. I think the addition of pineapple would make the dish much better. It was really good though.
