Method to make Ginger Chicken With Cashew Recipe

Whisk together chicken broth, 1 tsp cornstarch, soy sauce, rice wine, brown sugar and ¾ tsp of ginger paste in a bowl. Mix well and keep aside.

Next, combine chicken pieces, 2 tsp ginger paste, curry powder, garlic and 4 tsp cornstarch in a large bowl. Mix well to coat the chicken pieces in the marinade.

Now, heat sesame and olive oil together in a wok on high heat. Add chicken and cook for 2 minutes. Add dry red chillies and cook until golden brown for 2-3 more minutes, while stirring occasionally.

After 5 minutes, add bell pepper and green onions and cook for 2 more minutes.

Next, add soy sauce mix from step 1 to the chicken and reduce the heat to medium. Allow it to boil for 4-5 minutes, until the sauce thickens.

Once cooked, remove from heat, add in cashews and mix well.

Transfer the chicken to a serving bowl and serve hot with rice.

Note: You can use vegetable broth in place of chicken broth. Worcestershire sauce is a good alternative for soy sauce. In absence of cornstarch, use potato starch. Chicken thighs can be used in place of chicken breasts.
