General Tso’s Chicken, Rice & Broccoli

It’s not very often that everyone in my family agrees on a meal.  Some prefer salad, some meat and potatoes, and some would eat pizza every day of the week if I let them.  When I announce that we’re having General Tso’s Chicken, Rice & Broccoli, there’s a smile on everyone’s faces – especially mine since it’s simple to prepare.

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 boneless chicken breasts
• 2-cups of rice pilaf or brown rice
• broccoli
• 1 bottle of Iron Chef’s General Tso’s Sauce
• 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
• 4 tbsp flour
• vegetable oil

DIRECTIONS:

Prepare the rice according to the package instructions and set aside.

Steam the broccoli until it’s bright green and set aside.

Slice chicken into bite-sized cubes and dredge them in flour.

Pour about 1/2-inch of vegetable oil into a large skillet and cook the chicken over medium until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.

Place the chicken in an oven-safe dish.  Pour a full bottle of General Tso’s sauce over the chicken.  Sprinkle on 1/4 tsp crushed red paper.  Stir together.   Cook in oven for 10 minutes on 350 degrees.

Serve the chicken over the broccoli & rice.

Bon appétit!
