Our General Tao Chicken (also known as General Tso Chicken) is one of the most requested dishes on the Spring Wok Express menu. Crispy fried chicken pieces are wok-tossed in a bold, sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy glaze that clings to every bite without going soggy. It's a Stoney Creek and Hamilton East favourite for anyone who wants a little heat with their Canadian-Chinese combo plate, and it pairs beautifully with a side of fried rice or Chicken Chow Mein. Order it on its own or as part of a combo plate for a satisfying lunch, family dinner, or office catering tray.
General Tao Chicken is a Canadian-Chinese classic, and our version at Spring Wok Express stays true to what Stoney Creek diners expect: crispy chicken, a glossy glaze, and just enough heat to keep things interesting without overpowering the sweetness.
Each order is wok-tossed to order rather than sitting pre-sauced, which keeps the coating from turning soft. It's become one of our best-selling combo plate proteins for lunch orders across Stoney Creek, Fruitland, and Winona.
The balance is everything with this dish - too sweet and it loses its character, too spicy and it isn't for everyone. Our recipe keeps that classic mall-court balance while using fresh-cut chicken and a made-to-order wok toss, giving Highway 8 customers a General Tao Chicken worth coming back for.
