  • 2 1/2 cup Bob Red Mills All Purpose Gluten Free Flour

Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil. Add minced garlic and green onions and let cook for about 1 minute.
  2. Add tomato sauce, water, sugar, Szechuan and soy sauce. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat, add 1/2 cup of grapeseed oil. Let the oil heat to 375 degrees F.
  4. Combine beaten egg with half & half in a medium bowl. Pour flour into another bowl. Coat the chicken pieces by dropping them into the flour a few at a time, then into the egg mixture and then back into the flour again. Place the coated chicken on a plate until you have coated all of the chicken.
  5. Cook the chicken in small batches in the oil until lightly golden brown on all sides. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat until all the chicken is cooked.
  6. Discard the oil from the wok and then place the wok back on the burner over medium heat. Add the orange peel and cook for a minute to allow the oils to be released. Then add the sauce and chicken and cook briefly until heated through.
  7. Serve with white or brown rice.
