Okay- I love me some Chinese food, as does the brown husband.
But I hate making food that is difficult, takes forever and/or has
37 ingredients. So, I don't make it much, other than some stir-
fry here and there. BUT... I came across a super-easy-sounding
recipe on Pinterest (of course). The original can be found HERE,
and included only the chicken, cashews and the sauce.
I chose to add some veggies and onion.
Made it tonight and it is divine. Love!
Plus, it took a total of about 15-20 mins and has
really just 4-5 main ingredients. My kind of cooking.

INGREDIENTS:
-
*Boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or any chicken meat)
(For my family I used 3 large chicken breasts and it was perfect)
-
*1/2-1 bag of frozen Stir-Fry Vegetables
-
*Dried onion flakes or dried minced onion (about 1-2 T. to your
taste... OR you could use fresh onion too)
-
*Half a bottle of 'General Tso's Sauce'
(in the Asian section of grocery store- the original recipe
called for the "Iron Chef" brand, but I bought the cheaper one)
-
*S&P
-
*1/2 - 1 c. cashews (however much you want, and depending on
how much chicken you're cooking
-
*A bit of oil for bottom of pan (wok or frying)
---
DIRECTIONS:
-
1. Cut chicken into slices or cubes... (doesn't matter)
-
2. Place thin layer of oil in bottom of pan. Heat to med / med-high
-
3. Place chicken, dried onion, S&P and veggies in pan and cover
-
4. Let cook til chicken's cooked through, stirring every couple
of minutes
-
5. When chicken is cooked, turn to low/simmer, add sauce and cashews
and mix together. Let simmer til ready to eat.
-
6. Serve over rice and enjoy!
**It'd also be great in lettuce wraps, over salad or over noodles!
