Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped into bite-size pieces (or thighs)
salt and pepper
1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
1 tablespoon hot sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce (gluten-free)
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (gluten-free)
1/4 cup orange marmalade
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup cashews
3 scallions, thinly sliced on a bias

Steps:

  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of oil, about 2 tablespoons.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • When the pan is very hot, add in the meat and stir-fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the meat from the pan and reserve on a plate.
  • Add the bell pepper, onion, garlic and ginger to the skillet and stir-fry until tender, 3-4 minutes.
  • While that's cooking up, stir together the hot sauce, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, orange marmalade and stock in a small bowl.
  • When the veggies are tender, return the chicken to the skillet and pour the sauce over everything.
  • Add the cashews to the skillet, toss to coat and continue cooking until the sauce thickens up, about 1 minute.
  • Serve the stir-fry over brown rice, garnish with scallions.
