Description
This Aromatic Chicken with Cashews is a flavorful and satisfying dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering. The chicken is marinated in a savory sauce with soy sauce, sherry, and ginger, then stir-fried with bell peppers, onions, and crunchy cashews. I've been making this recipe for years, and it's always a hit with my family. The combination of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors is simply irresistible. It's easy to customize the level of spiciness to your liking by adjusting the amount of crushed red pepper. Serve it with rice or noodles for a complete meal.

Preparation (8 steps)
Prepare the marinade
In a large glass or ceramic bowl, whisk together ½ cup soy sauce, ½ cup cooking sherry, ¾ teaspoon white sugar, ¾ teaspoon ground ginger, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, ¾ teaspoon crushed red pepper, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. Add 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces, and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
Chop the onion
Place 1 large onion, quartered, into the mixing bowl and chop for 3 Sec./Stufe 5.
Sauté the onion

Add bell pepper
Add 1 large green bell pepper, sliced, to the mixing bowl and cook for 2 Min./120°C/Stufe 1.
Remove vegetables
Remove the onion and bell pepper from the mixing bowl and set aside.
Cook the chicken
Stir chicken and marinade into the mixing bowl. Cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 Min./100°C/Stufe 1/Linkslauf.
Add cashews
Stir in ½ cup whole cashews and cook for 2 Min./100°C/Stufe 1/Linkslauf.
