I have to be honest, I cannot stand bland food! I like spicy, I like sweet, I like savory, and there is nothing like Asian food to satisfy those needs. What can be even better is if you can make genaral tao wild turkey yourself at home in 20 minutes! This recipe needs a few ingredients but it is very simple. If you have fried fish before in your life, you can do this one! If you are intimidated by the sauce, just replace it by a store bought one. This is your catch, you enjoy however you can!<\/p>\n\n\n

    Salt and pepper<\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul><\/div>

    Directions<\/h3>
    • The sauce<\/strong><\/li>
    • In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, broth, vinegar, ginger, garlic, cornstarch, paprika, sriracha and sesame oil. Set aside.<\/li>
    • Heat a small small pot under medium heat. Combine the sugar and the water in the pot. Bring slowly to a boil and let it simmer until mixture is lightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.<\/li>
    • Add soy sauce mixture. Bring to a boil, while stirring constantly. Finally, remove the sauce from the heat.<\/li>
    • The main show<\/strong><\/li>
    • In a bowl, toss the turkey cubes into the cornstarch. Remove any excess corn starch.<\/li>
    • Heat half the oil in a large skillet under medium-high heat.<\/li>
    • When the oil is hot, add the turkey cubes one by one. Make sure that the cubes are not touching. You will need to do it in batches (I had to do 3). Flip the turkey cubes every minute until they are golden brown. Fish out the turkey cubes and drain them on a paper towel.<\/li>
    • Repeat step 3 with the remainder of the turkey cubes. Add oil if necessary (there should be around 1 cm (1\/2″) in the pan to fry the turkey. When all done, discard the oil.<\/li>
    • Use the same skillet for this step. Turn the heat down to medium. Combine the turkey, the bell peppers and the onion in the skillet (the bell peppers and onion will remain al dente). Toss for about 2 minutes. Then, add the sauce and the green onions. Let the mix heat for 1 minute.<\/li>
    • You are done!<\/li>
    • Serve with white rice and fried vegetables, and Enjoy!<\/li><\/ul><\/div>
