Cashew Chicken With Pineapple Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the first 7 ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Cool; divide in half.
• Use half to marinade 1-1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breast or chicken breast tenders over night. Refrigerate other half to be used later.
• Prepare white rice for 4 people, as instructed on bag.
• Remove chicken from marinade and discard marinade. Grill or broil chicken while rice is cooking.
• Stir can of crushed pineapple (drained) and about 3/4 cup of cashew pieces into cooked rice.
• Reheat other half of marinade. Serve grilled chicken over rice mixture with sauce. Also serve any type oriental vegetables you desire (I recommend snowpeas, water chestnuts, cauliflower, broccoli and carrots.)
• My husband isn't crazy about pineapple so I've started serving it separate from the rice. That way I can add it but he doesn't have to.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450. Place nuts, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and 1/4 tsp. salt in food processor or chopper and pulse 10 times or until crumbs measure 2/3 cup or more! Pour nut mixture in a quart ziploc bag.
• Dip breasts in egg white and dredge each breast in nut mixture. This is easier when you place the nut mixture in a ziploc bag and place the chicken in the bag and shake till the breast is covered.
• Coat an 11x7 baking dish with the canola oil and spread the pineapple on the bottom of the pan. Arrange chicken over the pineapple and bake at 450 for 7 minutes, flip the chicken and cook for another 7 minutes or until the chicken is done. (No longer pink inside)
• Cook the Kraft brown rice as directed on the box. Remove the cooked chicken from the dish and stir in the cooked rice, basil, and 1/2 tsp. of salt into the pineapple. Mix well.
• Once the pineapple and rice is mixed, serve on a dish and place a piece of the chicken on the top with a fresh sprig of basil for presentation.

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:

• First of all make the sauce. Combine everything, mix well until smooth and set aside.
• Fry the chicken in the oil with the onion and ginger for 5 minutes over a medium high heat.
• Add the green pepper and the pineapple chunks and fry for another 5 minutes adding half of the spring onions after 2 minutes.
• Add the crushed garlic and the cashew nuts, fry for 2 minutes then pour over the sauce and bring to the boil.
• After a minute or 2, the sauce should thicken and stick to the chicken. It it looks too thick, add some water, little by little until desired consistency is acheived.
• Utterly Delicious.
