I made this tonight and we all loved it! The sauce is delicious! We didn’t miss the battered style of chicken one bit. Alterations: I marinated my chicken in a little soy & garlic first, and also added some diced green onions, ginger, mushrooms, carrots, celery, cauliflower. (I had veggies I needed to use up). I didn’t have cashews but used peanuts and they were yummy too. Thanks for this recipe! A new favorite in our house!!
