Vegan General Tso’s Jackfruit

Step 1

Drain, rise, and pat jackfruit dry. Using your hands or a fork, shred the jackfruit chunks into bite sized pieces. It should resemble a “pulled pork” texture.

Step 2

Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the oil, jackfruit, and cook for 3-4 minutes until warm.

Step 3

In a medium bowl combine all of the General Tso’s sauce ingredients together and whisk.

Step 4

Add the sauce to the pan and mix until the jackfruit is covered in sauce. Gently simmer on medium-low heat for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce starts to thicken. Take the pan immediately off the heat. If left on the heat the sauce will burn.

Step 5

Taste the jackfruit and add additional soy sauce or crushed red pepper. Divide into bowls and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions!

Step 6

Leftover jackfruit can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 2 days.
