Description

Just as good as your favorite Chinese take-out place!

Ingredients

  • ½ pounds Mushrooms, Sliced
  • 3 whole Small Zucchini, Sliced And Quartered
  • 4 whole Green Onions, Sliced
  • 8 ounces, weight Can Water Chestnuts, Drained And Sliced
  • 1-½ pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Cubed
  • 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
  • 1-¼ cup Chicken Broth
  • 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 3 Tablespoons Oil, Divided
  • ¾ cups Salted Cashews

Preparation

Start by slicing all your vegetables and chicken.

Combine cornstarch, brown sugar, chicken broth and soy sauce in a small bowl and stir until thoroughly combined, set aside.

Heat 2 Tablespoons oil in a large skillet or wok and stir fry chicken until no longer pink in the center (I like to add a little garlic salt to the chicken while it cooks to add extra flavor). Remove and keep warm. Remove any remaining liquid from the pan and add 1 Tablespoon of oil. Stir fry the mushrooms, zucchini and green onions for about 5 minutes, until the zucchini and mushrooms start to soften. Stir in the chicken, water chestnuts and cashews. Stir the broth mixture and add to the pan, bring to a boil and let cook for 1-2 minutes, or until thickened. Serve with rice.

My husband requested a Chicken Cashew dish for dinner one night. I found this recipe and it was great! Easy, fast and delicious.

The only thing I added was chopped celery. And I served the whole dish over white rice. Yum!
