    Found this recipe online and wanted to post for safe keeping. Didn't see any that were a match to this one. Whomever posted it noted "The original Chinese version would have been made with peanuts because cashew nuts do not feature in Chinese cookery. Nevertheless, this dish uses the best Chinese principles: stir-frying to seal in the juices of the chicken, and then stir-frying again with spices to flavor it."
