Ingredients
For the sauce:
- 4-5 tbsp soy sauce low sodium
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1.5 tbsp honey
- 1-2 tbsp Sriracha sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
For everything else:
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 chicken breast cut into cubes
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 carrot sliced
- 1 cup cashews unsalted
- red chili flakes optional toppings
- green onions optional toppings
Instructions
- Mix together the ingredients for the cashew chicken sauce and set aside.
- In a Dutch oven or a high side pan on medium-high heat, add in olive oil, and then salt and brown the chicken on both sides for 2-4 minutes per side, depending on how large your chicken is cubed.
- Next, add in the cashew chicken sauce and stir to coat.
- Add in the vegetables. If you prefer them to be on the softer side, add them in after you add the sauce. If you prefer them to have more of a crunch, add them in near the end of cooking.
- Stirring to coat everything and to prevent the sauce from burning, let everything cook for another 4-7 minutes, until the chicken has cooked through and the sauce has thickened to your liking.
- Before serving, add in the cashews and mix to coat.
- Top with red pepper flakes and green onions if desired and serve alongside some rice or grain of choice.
