Directions
Chile Chicken with Cashews, This dish is wonderful to have for dinner on a cold, stormy evening. I serve this with plain steamed rice and a vegetable. My Flash-cooked Greens with Garlic, #65735 goes really well with this. Recipe is from ‘A Spoonful of Ginger’ by Nina Simonds., My mouth is still tingling with the spicy-sweet taste of this dish! used crushed red pepper flakes in place of chile paste and sherry instead of rice wine. I also added some mushrooms and bell peppers that were already chopped and sitting in my fridge. I had a ton of cooked linguine that needed to be used, so I served it with that instead of rice. Really good flavor. Thanks!, This dish is wonderful to have for dinner on a cold, stormy evening. I serve this with plain steamed rice and a vegetable.
