Try baking the chicken in the oven!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Unless you're adding fresh vegetables or something else that has some texture to it, there's no way to do this!. Reheating it in any way will just make it more soggy and overcooked!.
See if you can get some fried wonton noodles and use the Gen'l Tso's as a sauce for them!. The sauce will soften the noodles a little so you don't feel like you're crunching on twigs and the noodles in turn will give it some texture!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm sorry about your food!.!.my parents own a chinese restaurant so let me tell u what we can let our customers do!.!.!.well first if they don't want their food to get too soggy if they're taking stuff to go is that they can ask for the sauce on the side, and then when you go home just put how much you want on ur chicken!.!.!.then you have sauce on the side and the sauce doesn't make ur chicked as soggy!.!.you can also re-fry the chicken!.!.but since the sauce is there you really can't do that!.!.!.I would just cook it in a wok or pan to make it seem more fresh!.!.that helps somewhat!.!.!.!.but there's really no other way to make food fresh again!.!.!.
So next time just ask the restaurant ur going to, to put the sauce on the side!.!.!.or maybe make the chicken extra crispy (i mean tell the restaurant too)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I usually reheat General Tso's in my wok!. Nothing is going to compare to the fresh dish - but refrying it in the pan is worlds better than the soggy mess it becomes in the microwave!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
LAy out some foil on a cookie sheet!.!.!. place the chicken spread out on it!.!.!. BROIL in the oven until its sizzling!.!.!.!. leave the oven door open while broiling!.
