For recipe inspiration, we took a quick poll of family, friends and neighbors and landed on General Tso’s Chicken Wings.
They’re sweet & spicy, saucy & sticky and taste just like the popular Chinese take-out dish!

A little sesame oil and soy sauce and you’ve got the flavor profile down.
I always add carrots, onion and green peas but sometimes I also add zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, shrimp, or even bacon.

We bought eight (should have bought more) and decided to prepare them two ways.
