Cashew Chicken with Snap Peas image

Sometimes you just get a craving for a takeout favorite. While most restaurants won't include a vegetable in their version of cashew chicken, quick cooking snap peas adds a light crunch and fresh flavor that cuts through the garlicky, sweet and tangy sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup long-grain white rice
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, diced
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, grated
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 ounces sugar snap peas, trimmed
1/2 cup roasted unsalted cashews

Steps:

  • Cook the rice as the label directs. Set aside off the heat, 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 teaspoons soy sauce in a large bowl; set aside 5 minutes. Stir together the hoisin sauce, remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, the vinegar, sugar, ginger, garlic, remaining 1 teaspoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a separate bowl until smooth; set aside.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, stirring once or twice, until golden and almost fully cooked through, 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate, leaving any drippings behind. Add the snap peas to the skillet and cook until bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the cashews to lightly toast, about 1 minute.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in the hoisin sauce mixture. Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the chicken and vegetables, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Divide the rice among plates or shallow bowls. Top with the chicken mixture and sauce.
