Cashew Chicken

I made this a couple of months ago in trade for lawn services  :)

Ingredients:


1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces
    2 teaspoons chicken flavor instant bouillon or 2 chicken flavor bouillon cubes
1 1/4 cups boiling water
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 tablespoon cornstarch
    2 teaspoons brown sugar
  1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    8 ounces fresh mushrooms, slices (about 2 cups)
  1/2 cup sliced green onions
    1 small green bell pepper, sliced
    1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
  1/2 cup cashews
      Hot cooked rice


In small saucepan, dissolve bouillon in water. Combine soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar and ginger; stir into bouillon mixture. In large skillet, brown chicken in olive oil. Add bouillon mixture; cook and stir until slightly thickened. Add mushrooms, onions, green pepper and water chestnuts; simmer uncovered 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; add 1/4 cup cashews. Serve with rice. Garnish with remaining 1/4 cup cashews.

Refrigerate leftovers
