Broccoli Cashew Chicken Stir Fry Easy Recipes

Steps:

• Cook rice in water as directed on package.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix soy sauce, gingerroot, sugar and sesame oil. Stir in chicken until coated; let stand 15 minutes to marinate.
• In small bowl, stir 1/4 cup of the broth and the cornstarch until cornstarch is dissolved; set aside.
• In 12-inch skillet, heat vegetable oil over high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and add to heated oil in skillet; reserve any remaining marinade. Cook chicken about 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink in center.
• Stir broccoli and remaining 1/2 cup broth into chicken in skillet; cover and cook 1 minute. Stir in onions and cashews.
• Stir reserved marinade into cornstarch mixture. Stir into chicken mixture; cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly. Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Stir the lime juice and salt together. Add the chicken to the blend and marinate for 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Whisk the kudzu with the 1/4 cup cold water until completely dissolved, making a slurry.
• Stir the tamari, 1/4 cup water, maple syrup, lime juice, vinegar, 2 teaspoons of the garlic, 2 teaspoons of the ginger, and the cayenne together in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the sauce begins to thicken and is reduced in volume by one-third, about 4 minutes. Stir in the slurry while whisking continuously, then stir in the toasted sesame oil and remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, cut the broccoli florets into bite-size pieces. Trim and peel the stems and cut them into bite-size pieces as well, keeping them separate from the florets.
• Heat a wok or large, heavy sauté pan over high heat for 2 minutes. Add the light sesame oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon each of the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, until aromatic. Stir in the chicken and toss or stir constantly for 2 minutes. Add the broccoli stalks and stir-fry until bright green, then add the broccoli florets and continue stir-frying until bright and vibrant, about 2 minutes. Pour in the sauce and stir-fry for another 30 seconds, tossing constantly.
• Serve immediately, garnished with the cashews.
• For a vegetarian version, use tofu or tempeh in place of the chicken.
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days.
