Directions
Chicken and Cashew Stir-Fry,Yumm, chicken and cashews for dinner. 30 mins or less start to finish.,Makes lots of tasty sauce so it’s perfect for serving over rice or noodles. Enough sauce to easily add/vary the vegetables – broccoli, bean sprouts, water chestnuts, celery, mushrooms, snow peas, baby peas, broccoli slaw mix. Good recipe to change up.,More like a 4 1/2. Easy and quick go-to meal on a busy night, and it’s transformed into almost a new dish simply by changing the vegetables. I did find it to be just a tad too salty for my tastes, so using low-sodium soy is a good option here.
Unfortunately I didn’t have any fresh ginger on hand when I made this, so used powdered — on step 5 when the ginger goes in with the vegetables, I also threw in 1/8 cup of water and partially covered the pan. The water rehydrated the ginger and steamed the vegetables at the same time, and it was great in a pinch. (Note: I steamed the veggies for only 3 minutes, and then I uncovered the pan.)
Great meal. Will definitely make again.
