Ingredients

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the chicken into 1/4-inch (5-mm) slices. For easier slicing, place chicken in freezer 20 minutes to firm.

    When chicken is marinated, heat medium frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 tsp (5 mL) canola oil and red peppers. Sauté for 1 minute. Remove peppers from pan and set aside on a plate.

  4. Step 4

    Add chicken with marinade to frying pan. Stir-fry chicken 4 minutes. Return red peppers to pan and continue cooking 1 minute. Add snow peas and green onions and cook 2 minutes. Sprinkle with cashews and stir-fry 1 minute. Serve.
