Notes
This is a great dish to make for a dinner party. All of the prep can be done ahead of time. You can whip it together in just 5 minutes.
If you can't find the long, red Thai chilies, substitute one small red pepper along with 1-2 minced serrano or thai chilies.

This Chicken Cashew is fabulous.. I love it.. If you don't wanna add whiskey/white wine.. you can just put in some sesame oil or/and maybe extra oyster sauce to make it darker.. This is delicious yo eat with Thai steamed rice.. Soft and tender chicken and yet you taste the crispy and sweetness of the vegetables and crunchy cashews! J'adore!
This is a very easy recipe. For even more tenderness and flavour, use boneless chicken thighs.
There is a traditional Thai dish that is similiar called Gai Pad Med Mamuang Himaphan. Of course the taste is different as you use Thai Oyster Sauce which has no msg and has a richer less salty taste.
Garnished with fresh mango shredds and served with steamed Thai Hom Mali Jasmine rice it is a perfect quick dinner.
This is sometimes served over just steamed spinach or water vegetable which is common in SE Asia and China.
Buy very fresh green serranos and let them ripen....they become red. Just a bit less fresh but you have red!

Sorry dupe send! Im also thinking , reduce fish sauce and add.....ferm. black beans and it becomes chinese. Gives great depth ..visual and taste.
Yellow bean sauce is also great!
Serranos ripe and Thai Dragons and Bird Eye chiles are some of my favs. I have about 40 varieties this year in the garden. Red Savinas are fun too minced in honey.
Very easy to make and tastes great!!!
This was superb! Due to my innability to ever follow a recipe exactly, I ended us using a big squirt of agave nector instead of palm sugar since I didn't have any palm sugar and I also cut out the salt as I find soy and oyster sauce is salty enough on their own. this recipe was totally easy and totally yum.
Let me start by saying, I am not a great cook. This recipe was SO easy to make and has an outstanding flavor. I will definatly make it again.
Extremely simple recipe. Great flavor.
Did not add the salt required at the onions stage, as soy sauce and oyster sauce are already quick salty. Substituted the palm sugar with brown sugar. Delicious. I've added to my recipe book.
