Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients except for the sugar. IF you are using fresh ginger, then wait and fry it with the fresh garlic in step 2. Add sugar to taste, then set aside.
  2. Take the tablespoon of oil and heat in a large pan or wok. Fry the chicken until the chicken is well browned and cooked through. Add in the garlic and ginger, saute for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add in your vegetables and fry until tender-crisp.
  4. Take the sauce mixture and add to the vegetables, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly, 1-2 minutes. 
  5. Add in the cashews, warm slightly. Serve alone or over pasta or vermicelli noodles.

Notes

  • Sesame oil is my favorite flavor in this dish, so I add two teaspoons to give it some more depth. You can use one if desired.
