Provided by Kaitlin

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1/3 cup Asian vegetable stock ((or low-sodium store-bought vegetable stock))
1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce ((or seasoned soy sauce))
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine ((or cooking sherry))
3 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 pound vegan chicken nuggets or tenders
2 cups broccoli florets ((about 1 broccoli crown))
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4-5 dried red chili peppers ((broken in half if you like extra spice))
3 cloves garlic ((minced))
1 tablespoon cornstarch ((mixed with 2 tablespoons water))

Steps:

Make the sauce mixture by combining the vegetable stock, soy sauces, rice wine vinegar, Shaoxing wine, brown sugar, and white pepper. Set aside. Bake/cook the vegan chicken nuggets according to package instructions.
Bring a pot or wok of water to a boil, and blanch the broccoli for 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how crunchy/tender you like your broccoli. Drain and set aside. To keep it super green, you can also transfer the broccoli to an ice bath before draining.
Heat a clean wok or skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil along with the dried chilies. Cook for a few seconds, and add the minced garlic.
Next, add the prepared General Tso's sauce. Bring to a simmer. Stir the cornstarch into the water to make sure it's fully combined, and slowly stir the cornstarch slurry into the sauce. Simmer for another 30 seconds to allow the sauce to thicken.
Add the nuggets and broccoli, and toss until everything is evenly coated in sauce. Plate and serve immediately with steamed rice!

I like to saute the vegetables first and then add them back in at the end, that way they have a nice texture to them and don’t get too mushy with everything else--but feel free to cook the vegetables as you please.
In a large nonstick pot over medium high heat, add the sliced garlic if using, cook 1-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent, adding water or broth as needed (of course you may cook with oil if you prefer). Then add your veggies. For me, I sauteed the broccolini for about 5 minutes but NOT the red bell pepper because I prefer my red bell peppers crunchy, not soft. I put a lid on for part of those 5 minutes to give the broccolini a little steaming action. Cook according to your preferences. Either way, take your cooked veggies out of the pot and place them in a bowl and cover either with a small plate or aluminum foil.
While your veggies are cooking, rehydrate the soy curls by placing them in a medium bowl and adding vegetable broth or water just so the top soy curls are floating just a little, for me, about 1 ¾ cups broth for 8 oz soy curls. It should absorb all the water in about 6-8 minutes, but if it doesn’t, drain off the water well before cooking them.
Saute the minced or grated ginger and garlic next over medium high heat for about 1-2 minutes or until fragrant in your large nonstick pot. Remember to add just a little water or broth to keep them from sticking.
