THAI CASHEW CHICKEN STIR FRY



Thai Cashew Chicken Stir Fry image

Recipe video above. Crunchy and creamy cashews are the star in this popular Thai chicken stir fry! Tossed with a bold and savoury Thai stir fry sauce, make this as spicy as you want - or not at all.Thai Cashew Chicken is a dry-style stir fry so there's not a ton of sauce like with Chinese Cashew Chicken. But the flavour in this one is much more intense so you don't need nor do you want more sauce, it will be too salty!SPICINESS: Nice buzz to it from 1/2 a fresh chilli, not blow-your-head-off spicy.

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tbsp peanut oil ((or canola or vegetable oil))
1/2 cup raw cashews (, unsalted (Note 1 for roasted))
1 garlic clove (, finely minced)
1/2 onion ((brown, yellow, or white), cut into thin wedges)
200g/7oz chicken thighs (, skinless and boneless, sliced into 1cm / 1/3" thin strips (Note 2))

1/2 red cayenne pepper (, deseeded and finely sliced on the diagonal (omit or reduce if preferred) (Note 3))
1 tbsp oyster sauce ((Note 4))
1 tsp dark soy sauce ((Note 5))
2 tsp fish sauce ((Note 6))
1 tsp white sugar
3 tbsp water

Steps:

  • Chicken: Add chicken. Cook for 1 minute until the outside changes from pink to white.
  • White part of green onion & chilli: Add white part of green onions and chilli. Cook for 1 minute until chicken is just cooked through.
  • Add Sauce: Cook for 1 minute until it reduces down to a syrup, coating the chicken nicely.
  • Green onion & cashews: Add green part of green onions and cashews. Toss for 30 seconds.
  • Serve: Transfer to serving dish. Serve with jasmine rice, or other rice of choice, garnished with extra red chilli (if you can handle the heat!).

ELLEN'S STIR-FRY CASHEW CHICKEN



ELLEN'S STIR-FRY CASHEW CHICKEN image

This is a recipe that has been tweaked by me from several other recipes, so who knows where it all started? All I know is that it is very tasty and filling. A definite come-back-to dish.

Provided by Ellen Bales @Starwriter

Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoon(s) cornstarch
1/2 cup(s) chicken broth
3 tablespoon(s) low sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon(s) ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon(s) hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoon(s) extra virgin olive oil
2 large chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 small onion, chopped
1 package(s) (10 oz.) frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
1 can(s) (8 oz.) water chestnuts, sliced and drained
1 cup(s) cashew halves or pieces
- white or brown rice

Steps:

  • Place chicken pieces in 2 Tbsp. soy sauce in a deep bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove chicken and drain on paper towels.
  • Dissolve the cornstarch in the chicken broth and stir in the remaining 1 Tbsp. soy sauce, ginger, and hot sauce; set aside.
  • Heat half of the oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in the chicken; cook and stir until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet or wok and set aside.
  • Pour the remaining tablespoon of oil into the wok/skillet and stir in the onion, broccoli, and water chestnuts. Cook and stir until the chestnuts are hot and the onion has softened, about 5 minutes more.
  • Stir up the sauce to redistribute the cornstarch, then pour into the mixture and bring to a boil. If if appears too thick, just add water to desired consistency. Add the reserved chicken and stir until the sauce thickens, and the chicken is hot. Stir in cashews and serve over rice.
