Instructions

Mix all the ingredients for the sauce together, ensuring the sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside.
Heat a skillet with oil over high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the chicken and cook until both sides are slightly browned. Push the chicken to one side of the skillet, ensuring the other side has oil.
Add the garlic and onion and sauté for 30 seconds. Then add the bell peppers and cashew nuts. Toss and stir-fry with the chicken before adding the sauce. Add the scallions and stir to combine well. Turn off the heat and serve immediately with steamed rice.
