Ingredients

1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp seasoned rice vinegar or white wine vinegar
1juice of 1 small orange
1 tsp dark muscovado sugar
2 tsp cornflour
2 tbsp stir-fry oil or vegetable oil
385g unsalted cashew nuts
1medium onion, thinly sliced
1large skinless boneless chicken breast fillet, cut into chunks
250g broccoli florets
150g pack mangetout, sliced in half
1 red pepper, seeded and thinly sliced

Steps:

In a jug, mix together the soy sauce, vinegar, orange juice, muscovado sugar and cornflour. Set aside.
Heat the oil in a wok. Add the cashews and cook for a minute until golden brown. Quickly remove the nuts and tip on to kitchen paper to drain. Add the onion slices and fry over a high heat for 3-5 minutes until browned and softened, then lift them out and add to the cashews.
Tip the chicken into the wok and stir fry for 3-4 minutes, then tip in the broccoli, mangetout and red pepper and stir fry for another 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet still crunchy.
Stir the cornflour mixture to blend the ingredients, pour into the wok and stir fry for a couple of minutes until the sauce thickens. Stir in the onion and cashews, then pile on to warm plates.
