Orange Cashew Chicken

Ingredients:

1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup orange juice (fresh squeezed is the best)

2 tbsp. honey

1 tbsp. cornstarch

1 cup fresh snow peas (or to taste), rinsed

1/2 cup cashews (to taste, I use about a cup)

Directions:

Cut chicken into bite size pieces, season with salt & pepper, and sauté in pan until just cooked thru. Mix orange juice, honey and cornstarch well and add to pan with chicken. Cook until sauce thickens slightly. Add Snow peas. Simmer until sauce is desired thickness (2-5 minutes.) Add cashews; allow sauce to coat and cashews to warm slightly. Serve over white rice. Enjoy!!

**I always double the OJ, honey & cornstarch cause I LOVE the sauce.

Variations:

Add broccoli, diced red or green peppers, zucchini, or really any veggie you want.

Delicious with thinly sliced and sautéed beef or shrimp

Switch from white to brown rice for healthier version
