This recipe makes 4 servings
3 tbsp (45 mL) soy sauce
4 tsp (18 mL) cornstarch
1 tbsp (15 mL) granulated sugar
1 tbsp (15 mL) sherry or chicken stock
1 tsp (5 mL) sesame oil
1 dash hot pepper sauce
1 lb (454 g) boneless skinless chicken thighs or chicken breasts

1 sweet red pepper
1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
1/3 cup (75 mL) roasted cashews

Steps:

In small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, sherry, sesame oil and hot pepper sauce; set aside. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces; set aside. Remove strings from snow peas; cut diagonally in half. Seed, core and cut red pepper into bite-size chunks. Set aside. In wok or large skillet, heat vegetable oil over high heat; stir-fry chicken, in batches, until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to plate. Add snow peas, red pepper, cashews, garlic and ginger to wok; cover and steam until red pepper is tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to pan; toss to combine. Stir in soy sauce mixture; simmer until glossy, about 1 minute. Shortcuts: Look for precut stir-fry chicken strips at the meat counter. Find over 8,000 more Tested Till Perfect recipes at canadi
