General Tso's Chicken
(4 servings)

4 chicken breasts
4 TB Olive Oil (This is optional, you can cook the chicken in a plain dry pan over medium heat if desired)
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Soy Sauce
1/2 Cup Pineapple Juice
1/2 Cup White Vinegar
4 Cloves of Garlic
3 Dashes of Red Pepper (Cayenne Pepper)
2 Dashes of Red Pepper Flakes
2 tsp Fresh Grated Ginger (I use Ginger from a jar, which works perfectly)
Flour
4 TB Cornstarch
6 TB Water
Steamed Broccoli
Rice
1 TB Baked Sesame Seads (if desired)

1. In wok combine; sugar, soy, pineapple juice, vinegar, garlic, ginger, cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes. Simmer.

2. Cut and cube chicken breasts. Dredge chicken in flour and fry in skillet until golden brown. (You can cook the chicken in oil, or cook the chicken dry in a pan to save on fat - I happen to not use oil)

3. Remove chicken from frying pan and remove excess oil if used.

4. Mix cornstarch and water, and add mixture to wok, stirring until thickened.

5. Add chicken to wok, stirring to coat chicken. Add sesame seads if desired.

6. Serve with rice and steamed broccoli.

There, finally posted the recipe's...I am tired of typing now.

You know how hard it is to write down a recipe that you make without measuring ingredients? Quite difficult.

For the General Tso's...this is of course not going to be identical to what you get in a restaurant, because the chicken is not deep fryed, no msg, etc., and it is surely not going to kill you as fast.

Thanks lunch36! I am disappointed you've not noticed the addition to my avatar. I replaced the letter that was on my cap. It seemed the trendy thing to do.

Orange Julius:

I prefer the home made stuff over the mall any day.

1/2 cup milk (usually use 1 or 2%)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 "lid-full' of vanilla extract (ie use the lid of the bottle and add to the above)
Half can of frozen orange juice you buy at the store
As much ice as you like (I like mine really thick so I add a lot of ice)

Add ingredients to a blender and blend away till you get it as thick or thin as you want. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 Stick Butter
3-4 heaping teaspoons Flour
Garlic Powder
2 Tablespoons Bullion dissolved in water
pepper
Broth

Directions:
In a large frying pan melt one stick butter. Stir in three to four heaping teaspoons of flour and cook on medium heat until brown. NOTE: Cooking on high heat fast will leave a flour taste in the gravy. Stir in garlic powder, bullion (dissolved in water), and pepper. Add broth on cup at a time stirring constantly until broth is absorbed. Keep adding broth until you reach the desired consistency.

Here is a good Pennsylvania Dutch recipe. This is great for holiday leftovers! Try it with some vinegar sprinkled on top. yummy

Ingredients:
Leftover Meat (Ham, Beef, Chicken or Turkey) (cut into bite size pieces)
Potatoes (pealed and cut into bite size pieces)
Green Beans
Broth

Noodles:
1 Cup Flour
1 Tablespoon Shortening
1 Cup Broth (cooled)
Salt & Pepper

Directions:
In a 3 quart pot, place meat, broth and potatoes on medium-high heat.

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Using a table fork, cut in shortening until you have a crumb mixture. Add cooled broth and mix into a dough.

On a floured board, roll out dough and cut into 1 inch squares. Allow the noodles to rest for 2-3 minutes and then place into hot broth one at a time so that they don't stick together. Cook until potatoes began to soften. Add the green beans and finish cooking. Adjust salt and pepper and serve.

--Enjoy

Here is a cookbook I have compiled with recipies from another forum I frequent, www.badassmofo.com.

Hopefully no one there gets overly pissed that I'm sharing with the rest of the world, but I'm sure they'll understand.

If they were willing to share there, they know to expect it to pop up everywhere else. Wink
