General Tso’s Chicken was pinched from <a href="http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/general_tsos_chicken.html" target="_blank">www.eatingwell.com.</a>

"In this healthy version of a General Tso’s Chicken recipe, we cut the fat and sodium in half from the original version by not frying the chicken and by using half as much soy sauce in this Chinese-takeout favorite. Serve with steamed baby bok choy or sautéed spinach and steamed brown rice...."
