How to Make Lauras General Tso's Seitan
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, garlic powder, ginger powder, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the seitan, cornstarch, and salt. Toss to coat evenly.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the seitan to the hot oil and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the seitan from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the garlic and ginger and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add the cooked seitan to the sauce and toss to coat evenly.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions (optional) and serve immediately over rice or noodles.
