Tso's Chicken

This crispy and tender chili chicken recipe is a mouthwatering delight that combines succulent chicken leg meat with a bold, spicy-sweet sauce. Marinated with salt, egg whites, and starch for extra crispiness, the chicken is fried to golden perfection in olive oil, ensuring a juicy interior and a crunchy exterior. The magic happens when dried chili peppers are stir-fried to release their smoky aroma, then combined with a flavorful mix of June fresh, sugar, vinegar, wine, and chili oil for a rich, tangy glaze. Finished with fresh pointed peppers and a drizzle of sesame oil, this dish offers a perfect balance of heat, sweetness, and umami. Quick to prepare yet bursting with complex flavors, this recipe is ideal for spice lovers looking for a restaurant-quality meal at home. Serve it hot for an unforgettable dining experience!
