Cashew Chicken

Cashew Chicken
¼ c orange juice
1/3 c honey
¼ c soy sauce
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. garlic powder
½ tsp. pepper
2 Tbsp vege. Oil
4 green onions, chopped
2 large carrots, sliced
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into strips
1 cup cashews
In a bowl, combine juice, honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, and seasonings.
In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp oil until it smokes. Stir-fry veges for several minutes until onions become fragrant. Set aside and keep warm.
In the same skillet, heat another Tbsp oil and stir-fry chicken until brown and tender.
Add cooked veges, cashews, and sauce.

BECKY AND DANA: There is no cornstarch in the sauce...this is something I thought you might like to add to thicken as you are cooking....what i typically do when I am cooking..

  1. We had this Friday night with the boys. Didn't use the orange juice, did Pineapple instead and I liked it better....I might have even added the pineapple to the meal..I also might add broccoli to the meal next time....Let me know what you two think

  2. Pineapple is always good with me and Broccoli is a great idea too. That is one of Jason's fav veggies so he would definitely like that.
