However, the stories of the recipes heritage involving Zuo Zongtang (General Tso) are probably apocryphal, and it is more likely to be a dish based on similar Hunanese recipes, invented to please the American diner. Nonetheless, it is tasty and easy to prepare. While the dish is traditionally deep-fried, it tastes just as good when shallow-fried—a safer and easier option.
