Glazed chicken with cabbage, carrots and cashews over rice.

  • 1  pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup light soy sauce
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 3  tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2  tablespoons chili sauce (such as Heinz)
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1  cup chicken broth
  • 1  tablespoon cornstarch
  • 4  cups coleslaw mix
  • 1  cup salted cashew nuts
  • 3  cups cooked white rice
  1. Place chicken in a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking dish. In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil, the chili sauce, ginger and garlic powder. Pour over the chicken and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  2. Mix together the broth and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Heat large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and marinade and bring to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until internal temperature of chicken reaches 160 degrees F. on an instant-read thermometer. Remove chicken; set aside.
  4. Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet and add coleslaw mix. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in broth mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high; simmer 1 minute, until sauce thickens. Add in chicken and any accumulated liquid and heat through.
  5. Stir in cashews and serve with rice. Makes 4 servings.

    Tonight we served the Oriental-Glazed Chicken with Lipton Green Tea – Mixed Berry.

    We substituted 4 cups cabbage (sliced using our Kyocera Adjustable Slicer set at 3.0mm) and 1 carrot; julienned (using our Kyocera Julienne Mandoline Slicer). We also added 1 medium onion; thinly sliced.
