General Tso's Chicken

I love this dinner. It is so delicious and it is quick and healthy, too! Normally, General Tso's is breaded and deep fried. Delicious, yes. Good for you, not so much. Don't get me wrong... I enjoy fried food, too, and I have a sweet and sour pork recipe that is fried and so yummy. (I will make it and post... promise!)

Back to the recipe at hand... I promise you won't miss the breading on this. Try it... you'll be pleasantly surprised!

3/4 cup chicken broth
