It’s a common item on Chinese takeout menus, but the dish is about as American as it gets.

“It’s a great dish because it is sweet, it is fried and it is chicken — which are all things Americans love. But it is not a dish that is actually served in China,” says Jennifer 8. Lee, producer of the documentary “The Search for General Tso.”

“And the versions of General Tso’s chicken that are now in China, are actually imported from America.”

-> I guess it is sorta America's Chicken Tikka Masala.
