CHICKEN CASHEW AND NOODLE STIR-FRY
From Australian BH&G Diabetic Living. As the DH cooks most of the stir-frys in this household (I do all the prep) I'm hoping to get him to give this one a try so saving here (easier to print out the recipe than using the magazine), though would make some minor changes for allergy reasons. Please note that they usually do not specify brands in their recipes unless they feel they are integrate to the nutritional count.

SPICY CASHEW CHICKEN STIR-FRY
Steps:
- In a medium bowl combine the honey, vinegar, tamari and sriracha. Whisk to combine and set off to the side. In a large bowl combine chicken with cornstarch, salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Over medium-high, heat wok or large skillet with coconut oil and sesame oil. Once hot arrange the chicken in an even layer. Leave undisturbed for 3-4 mins. or until golden crust forms. Flip and continue to cook for 3-4 mins. Remove the chicken to a bowl and set off to the side. Add the broccoli, peppers, onion and garlic to the wok. Cook, stirring often until vegetables are tender yet still a bit firm. Add chicken back in and cook for 2 to 4 mins. or until fully cooked. Add cashews, peas and sauce to the wok. Stir until coated and heated through. Serve over warm rice.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a variety of fresh vegetables in your stir-fry. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, snap peas, and bell peppers.
- Make sure to cut your vegetables into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking your stir-fry. This will prevent the vegetables from cooking properly.
- Use a high-quality cooking oil, such as avocado oil or grapeseed oil, for the best results.
- Be careful not to overcook your stir-fry. The vegetables should be cooked through but still have a slight crunch.
- Serve your stir-fry immediately with rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish.
