Cashew Chicken is one of my favorite recipes. I have made it several different ways, but I recently saw this recipe via crockpot over at the recipe critic. This easily feeds 4 people. I didn't take a great picture b/c I at it swiftly and forgot to grab a snap of the left overs until they were boxed up. There is only one 'cooking' step before the crockpot. I did drop a few ingredients (green onions), only because I didn't have them.
Ingredients: 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 inch pieces, 3 T cornstarch, 1/2 t. black pepper, 1 T oil, 1/2 c. soy sauce, 4 T rice wine vinegar, 4 T ketchup, 2 T sweet chili sauce, 2 T. brown sugar, 2 garlic cloves (minced), 1 t. grated fresh ginger, 1/4 t. red pepper flakes, 1 c. cashew
Instructions:
1. Combine cornstarch and pepper in a ziplock. Add chicken and shake to coat with cornstarch mix. 2. Heat oil over medium and brown chicken for 2 min on each side. Place in crockpot.
3. Combine soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, sweet chili sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, pepper flakes, and cashew in a bowl. Stir and toss over chicken.
4. Cook on low for 3-4 hours or high for 2 hours. Serve over rice.
*the original recipe says you can wait to add cashew until the end to prevent them from getting too soft
