Cashew Chicken

 Ingredients: 

1 1/2 pounds chicken breasts

1/4 cup cornstarch  

2 tablespoons olive oil 

1/4 cup soy sauce 

1/2 cup of chicken broth 

3 cloves of garlic 

1 tablespoon brown sugar 

1 tablespoon hoisin sauce 

1 teaspoon sesame oil 

1 cup of unsalted cashews 

salt and pepper 

1. Start by warming up roughly 20 briquettes. 

2. Chop chicken into cubed pieces. Place in a large plastic bag and add salt and pepper to taste. 

2. Add cornstarch and toss until chicken is fully coated. 

3. Distribute all 20 briquettes under your Dutch-oven to ensure even cooking. Pour olive oil into pan and allow to heat (until reaches its smoking point). 

4. Add chicken to pan so it is distributed in a single layer.  Cook until each side of the chicken until golden brown. 

5. In a bowl combine soy sauce, chicken broth, garlic, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Whisk until fully combined. 

6. Add cashews and sauce mixture to pan. Simmer until the sauce has thickened. Placing the lid on top of your Dutch-oven for a few minutes may aid in the thickening process. 

7. Serve with rice and vegetables.
