Park City Cashew Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil with the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. When butter melts into the oil, add the 1/4 cup chopped onions and cook 2 minutes. Add rice and cook 3 minutes more. Add stock and cover the pot.
• Bring to a rapid boil. Once stock is boiling, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender (17 - 18 minutes).
• While the rice cooks, heat a large skillet over high heat. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, then the chicken. Season chicken with grill seasoning. Lightly brown chicken on both sides then move off to one side of the pan. Add the 3/4 cup thinly sliced onions, garlic, and bell peppers. Cook 2 - 3 minutes then mix the vegetables and meat together and add chipotles and cumin. Toss to coat.
• Glaze mixture with honey and syrup and turn heat off. Add cilantro or parsley and nuts.
• Top the rice with the cashew chicken.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the vinegar, brown sugar, oyster sauce, sesame oil, 1/4 cup of the soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of the ginger. Set aside.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and saute until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
• In the same skillet, stir-fry the garlic, bell peppers and remaining 2 tablespoons ginger, keeping them crisp-tender. Deglaze the skillet with the sherry and scrape up any brown bits. Add the reserved soy mixture and cook until the mixture boils, about 1 minute. Whisk together the cornstarch and remaining 1/4 cup soy in a small bowl, then stir the slurry into the skillet. Add the cashews and water chestnuts. Add 1/4 cup water to thin the sauce. Cook for another minute.
• Serve garnished with the scallions and cilantro.

Steps:

• In a medium pot over medium heat combine 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan, and 1 tablespoon butter.

• While rice cooks, make the chicken. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add vegetable oil, 2 turns of the pan, then the chicken. Season the chicken with grill seasoning.

Cook 2 to 3 minutes then add water chest nuts and green peas and mix vegetables and meat together. Add the chipotles and cumin. Toss to coat. Glaze the mixture with honey and maple syrup and turn off the heat. Add in the chopped cilantro or parsley and the cashew nuts.
