INSTRUCTIONS
Wash and dry the skinless, boneless, chicken breast tenders and cut into
bite-sized pieces. In a glass bowl, marinate in soy sauce for no more than
20 minutes.
Just before cooking, coat the chicken pieces with cornstarch.
Heat (circulon) wok, adding oils to coat well. Fry the chicken in batches;
shaking off excess cornstarch, and moving cooked pieces up the sides of the
wok. (Save the empty marinade bowl for the sauce.)
When chicken is no longer pink, add the peppers, garlic and red pepper
flakes (or fresh ginger). Fry a few minutes. Add mushrooms and fry 2
minutes.
Season with "Mixed Ground Pepper Corns." Add 1/2 teaspoon of Southeast
Asian Fish Sauce (optional). Add cashews.
Using the marinade bowl with the leftover cornstarch, add the broth and
water and additional soy sauce. Dissolve the cornstarch. Make a well in
the wok. Pour solution in middle and heat, stirring until well-cooked and
thickened. Serve at once over rice.
COOKsNOTE: If pepper strips are frozen, thaw in sieve, rinse with cold
water, then blot dry between many layers of paper towels.
Serving Ideas : Menu: Steamed Rice and Chicken Peppers Cashew
NOTES : Swanson has introduced an Oriental Broth - a sweetened version of
it's vegetable broth. First tried 17Ap96 with this classic.
Success: sauce was lighter and less salty than classic
