Better than take-out, healthier than take-out, AND ready in under 30 minutes?! 30-Minute Cashew Chicken is a family friendly weeknight meal that everyone will be requesting again and again. The easy sticky sauce uses pantry staples and it all cooks in just one skillet!
What should I serve it with?
Cooked white rice is the classic option and my favorite! But it’s also great with quinoa or cauliflower rice for a healthier spin!
Can I eat this as leftovers?
The Cashew Chicken can be kept in the fridge in an airtight container for about 4 days. The chicken will lose some of its crispness and become slightly soggy. This is normal. If that doesn’t bother you, you can just reheat in the microwave. But, if you want to crisp it up again then I recommend tossing it into a skillet to heat it back up.

Followed recipe exactly, the hoisin sauce overpowered the dish, I used 1/2 of the recipe for the sauce while diluting it with chicken broth but it was still like sludge. Flavor was nice but would not make again.
I always look at cashew chicken recipes just to see if they are truly 'cashew chicken'. 😊 It was invented in my hometown of Springfield, Mo and we use oyster sauce and our recipe is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Ours is very mild tasting and extremely yummy. If you want true cashew chicken look up Springfield Mo cashew chicken
