I used to be a bit anxious about this genuine Normal Tso’s hen recipe as there have been some components that had been new to me and so they had been, nicely, pungent. However when all of it got here collectively, I discovered real love at first chunk! Each mouthful was a burst of completely balanced flavour – salty, spicy, candy, bitter and meaty. Yum!


That is going to be an everyday at our home. And will probably be good in a thermos for varsity lunch, assuming I can hold my classmates’ hands-off.
I ate this with plain jasmine rice and steamed broccoli. Subsequent time I’ll make double the sauce as a result of good because it was with the crunchy hen, it was heaven with the plain rice. Okay, I actually like rice.
In reality, I’ll double or triple the entire recipe so I can have leftovers and put some away within the freezer. I’m guessing I ought to freeze the cooked hen and sauce individually, nevertheless it’s no huge deal to thaw and toss them collectively on the stovetop.
And I’m going to provide this recipe a go together with different meats (duck, lamb) and even tofu. Sure, the sauce is that good.
