Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces.
Put the chicken pieces in a large bowl, add egg white, flour, cornstarch, salt, and oil, and mix.
Add water little by little to the mixture and knead gently.
Keep adding water until the mixture coats the chicken and is smooth.
Keep the prepared chicken mixture in the refrigerator for 25-30 minutes.
For the sauce, mix soy sauce, sesame oil/olive oil, granulated sugar, ketchup, and paprika in a bowl and keep it to room temperature.
For the frying phase, put the oil in a large skillet and heat over medium heat.
We will fry the chicken pieces twice.
Take the chickens out of the mortar and drop them into the hot oil one by one without overfilling the pan.
Recommendation: When first fry the pieces of chicken, make sure that the oil is not too hot and the outside of the chicken is slightly browned. (Don’t let them get too brown)
After the first frying, raise the heat and let the oil heat to a high temperature.
Fry one more time the pre-frying chicken pieces again in the hot oil for a few more minutes.
Let them turn golden brown this time.
Remove the fried chicken to a paper towel-lined tray.
Put sunflower in a large or wok pan and fry the grated or very finely chopped ginger and garlic.
Pour the sauce mixture you prepared earlier on top and bring it to a boil once.
Dissolve the starch needed for the sauce by mixing it in cold water.
Add the starch to the boiling mixture, stir and cook until it thickens.
When the sauce thickens, add the chicken pieces and mix.
Continue stirring the pan for a few minutes until the sauce sticks to the chicken.
For each serving, take 4 tbsp of cooked basmati rice into a bowl.
Put General Tso’s on it.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped scallions.
Tip: Drink 1 cup of plain kefir with the meal to hit 600 calories.
