FAKE OUT TAKE OUT GENERAL TSO
CHICKEN:
- 1 kilo thin chicken cutlets (cut the long way into finger like strips

- (Bowl 1- About 2 cups potato starch
- Bowl 2 – 6 eggs beaten
- Bowl 3- 4 cups gluten free kfp crumbs)
- (I add a little pinch of salt to each bowl!
FOR THE SAUCE:
- In a medium combine:
- 2 cups light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup vinegar (white or apple cider)
- 1/2 cup dry red wine
- 1/3 cup tomato paste
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 2 tbsp granulated onion
- 1 Tbsp granulated garlic
- 1-2 Tbsp chili flakes (depending on spice level)
- 2 tsp kosher salt
Cooking steps
Step 1
In a large combine schintzel and sauce. If adding broccoli, defrost 1-2 bags of broccoli (I cut off the stems!) and add to the pan with the shnitsel and the and the sauce. Mix everything to coat (I put on gloves and do it with my hands bc it’s easier!).
Step 2
Cover the pan with parchment and foil and place in a 175°c (350°f) oven for 15 min. Uncover and cook another 10 min. The shnitsel sort of absorbs the sauce and it doesn’t really stay crispy but it still has a crunch bc the gluten free bread crumbs retain more of their bite and it’s just really yummy and satisfying!!!
Step 3
Serve hot and enjoy!!!
