Рецепт Cashew Chicken -Restaurant Quality
I made cashew chicken a few weeks ago that required a hoisin sauce. By the time I was done making it I was ready to tear the recipe apart and make changes. I wanted to give cashew chicken a try again, but I was gun shy about using that same recipe even with the changes I thought would make it even better.
I found this recipe on food.com and decided to give it a try. I was a little taken aback by the first ingredient… ketchup? I thought that sounded odd and I was fearful I was going to have another recipe like the last one.
I was way off bases about the potential of this new recipe. This recipe is perfect! It’s exactly everything you could want in cashew chicken. It’s absolutely restaurant quality. It honestly couldn’t be better in my opinion. I didn’t change a thing in this recipe. I thought it was perfect in every sinlge way!

Toss the chicken with cornstarch mixture. I like using a zip bag for this.
Heat a frying pan to a high heat and add cooking oil.
When oil is hot add chicken.

Stir fry mixture until chicken is cooked through and opaque.
Add bell pepper and carrots, stir fry until tender crisp about 2-3 minutes, then add snow peas.
