Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into chunks.
Put the cut chicken breasts in a large zip lock bag.
Add the flour to the bag with the chicken and shake the chicken around so the flour gets on all of the chicken pieces.

Fry the chicken breasts on medium-high heat for about 45 minutes until there is no pink showing.

In a bowl mix together the general tso chicken seasoning mix packets, water, soy sauce, and sugar.
Add the seasoning mix to the chicken.
Simmer the chicken and sauce mixture for about 10 minutes on medium heat until the seasoning sauce thickens.
