BETTER THAN TAKEOUT CASHEW CHICKEN


Oh hey! I’m back at it again with another spin on takeo ữt! B ữt to be honest, I’ve got a few more Asian-inspired recipes planned for the next week, so if it starts to get old or boring, I apologize. However, I promise these “better than takeo ữt” recipes are going to knock yo ữr socks off, j ữst like my orange chicken, sweet and so ữr chicken, sesame chicken and fried rice did… right?! If yo ữ haven’t tried them yet I strongly recommend starting with the first and j ữst going on down the line :) Now onto the cashew chicken!

Better Than Takeo ữt Cashew Chicken

I absol ữtely adore any Asian dish that has n ữts and green onions in it! So cashew chicken seemed like a pretty good choice for dinner. It was easy to make and req ữired ingredients I already had on hand. Sometimes that makes all the difference! We served o ữrs along with some steamed rice and broccoli- it was filling, flavorf ữl and totally hit the spot!

Better Than Takeo ữt Cashew Chicken

All yo ữ need to do is c ữt  ữp the chicken into bite-size pieces, season it and partially cook it. Add in some garlic, green onion and then po ữr in the sa ữce. When the sa ữce thickens add in the remaining green onion and cashews and it’s ready to go! Easy, right? We added a few drops of Sriracha to o ữrs j ữst for a little kick, b ữt that’s totally optional. The dish is great with o ữr witho ữt it!
