Cashew Chicken Recipe
Do you like to eat cashew chicken when you go out? Well, how about making it at home? Not only is it cheaper to eat at home, it is not that hard to make.
The prep time with this is about 30 minutes. But about 20 of that is just letting the chicken marinate. So it really is only how long it takes you to chop up the veggies. And the cook time is only about 5 minutes.
This was made using a wok, but if you don’t have one a deep frying pan works just fine.
The serving shows as 2, these are two large portions. So if you are a lite eater you could get more servings out of this.
