16 ounces boneless chicken thighs, sliced into strips
8 ounces fine egg noodles
1 tablespoon clear honey
2 -4 tablespoons vegetable oil (for example peanut or sunflower)
1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
8 coriander roots, scraped and finely chopped (cilantro)

CHICKEN CASHEW AND NOODLE STIR-FRY



Chicken Cashew and Noodle Stir-Fry image

From Australian BH&G Diabetic Living. As the DH cooks most of the stir-frys in this household (I do all the prep) I'm hoping to get him to give this one a try so saving here (easier to print out the recipe than using the magazine), though would make some minor changes for allergy reasons. Please note that they usually do not specify brands in their recipes unless they feel they are integrate to the nutritional count.
