When I first put up this blog I had absolutely no idea what I was doing or if I would even like doing it. I can happily say that I truly love taking pictures of my food and writing about it. But what really thrills me the most are all the lovely comments from my readers. Readers who span the globe on 6 continents, reaching out and visiting me in my little corner of cyberspace here in New York City. I want to thank all of you who have been visiting me from the beginning and for those of you who are new to my blog. Old friends and new friends who I have met along the way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful comments on here and in private messages and emails. I truly appreciate them and it inspires me to cook more.


Thank you,

Sandi

Tso's Skinny Chicken

I bought a jar of General Tso's sauce  a while ago but today I thought that General Tso's chicken would go perfect with my cold noodles.  Right on the bottle is a recipe for a low fat version of it so I changed the recipe around a bit and I think you will like it.








Tso's Skinny Chicken
Serves 4
Ingredients
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts (not the thin sliced)(cut into 1 inch chunks)
1 bottle of Asian Gourmet or any other brand of General Tso's Dipping and Grilling Sauce
1 tbsp. canola or peanut oil (not pictured)
2 tsp. sesame oil (not pictured)
Toasted sesame seeds for garnish
1 tsp. cilantro for garnish (not pictured)

Directions
Mix the chicken pieces with 1/2 cup of the sauce and refrigerate for about an hour, even more is ok.  Heat oil in skillet, add the chicken and cook 4-5 minutes, turning frequently until browned.  Add one cup of the sauce and simmer for 8-10 minutes. Drizzle with the sesame oil.  Serve over rice or noodles. Dip chicken into remaining sauce from the bottle.

Enjoy!
