Quick, Easy-N-Fast Cashew Chicken and Snow Peas

Posted in by blkris | Edit
I honestly can't remember where I got this recipe.  I just know it has been in my recipe box for quite a while and it is a good meal and something a little different.  Hope you enjoy it too!

3/4 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breasts
freshly ground pepper
1/2 lb. fresh snow peas
3 garlic cloves
3 T. olive oil or coconut oil (divided)
1/2 C. salted roasted cashews
1/2 C. chicken broth

Cut chicken into thin strips and season with pepper.  Remove stems and strings from snow peas and cut in half diagonally if very large.  Finely chop garlic.

Heat 2 Tbs. oil in a wok or large skillet.  Add chicken and stir fry over high heat until just cooked through, 2-3 min.  Remove to a plate.  Add remaining 1 Tbs. oil to wok and stir fry snow peas over high heat 1 min.  Reduce heat to medium.  Add garlic and cashews and cook, stirring, 1 min.

Return chicken to pan, add 1/2 C. chicken broth and simmer until heated through, about 1 min.

Makes 4 servings.  Serve over hot brown rice.
