 Thai Cashew Chicken



Thai cashew chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is made with chicken breast, cashews, and a flavorful Thai sauce. The chicken is cooked until tender and the sauce is rich and creamy. The cashews add a bit of crunch and texture.

Here is a recipe for Thai cashew chicken:

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 1/2 cup cashews

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides.
  3. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the skillet and cook until softened.
  4. Stir in the chicken broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

  6. Serve over rice.

Here are some tips for making Thai cashew chicken:

  • Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts for the best results.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the chicken. This will prevent it from browning properly.
  • If you don't have brown sugar, you can use granulated sugar instead. Just be sure to add a little less, as brown sugar has a stronger flavor.
  • You can also add other vegetables to the dish, such as carrots, broccoli, or peppers.
  • Serve the Thai cashew chicken with a side of rice or noodles.
