Chicken Cashew Recipe
Serves 2 or 3

2 boneless chicken breasts
1 bunch green onions
8 oz. portabello mushrooms
1 can water chestnuts
1 cup (2 - 3 oz.) cashew halves and pieces
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tbsps. sesame oil, divided
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. lemon juice
1 cup white rice (uncooked measurement)

Cut chicken into small cubes.
Mix 1/4 cup soy sauce
    1 tbsp. sesame oil
    1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
    1/4 tsp. garlic powder
    1/4 tsp. lemon juice
Pour over chicken, cover and refrigerate.

Slice mushrooms.
Slice green onions (I cut them with kitchen scissors approx. 1/4 to 1/2 inch lengths).

Start cooking rice. If you use regular rice, start cooking it 10 minutes before
you start the chicken.

Put 2 tbsps. sesame oil in wok or large frying pan.
Heat to high heat (375° F.)
Carefully add chicken and marinade.
Cook until chicken is no longer pink, stirring constantly.
Add water chestnuts and cook for approx. 1 minute.
Add mushrooms and cook for approx. 2 minutes.
Add cashews and cook for another minute.
Add green onions and cook another minute or to desired doneness.
 
Serve over rice.

Serve with your favorite egg rolls as a side dish.
