It\u2019s a quick meal that\u2019s easy to make, no matter your skill level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thai cashew chicken was one of my favorite dishes while living in Bangkok and now it\u2019s one of my favorites to make back in my home country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Thai cashew chicken recipe is the result of collaboration with my partner, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/_AmandaLaine\">Amanda<\/a> and we had a blast making it for the Recipe to Roam blog!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Ingredients You\u2019ll Need<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicken:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>200g chicken breast, cut sliced thinly<\/li><li>2 tbsp cornstarch<\/li><li>\u00bc tbsp ground white pepper<\/li><li>1 tsp salt<\/li><li>\u00bd cup vegetable oil<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Vegetables:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>1 tbsp garlic, crushed (5 cloves)<\/li><li>\u00bd cup yellow onions, sliced into wedges (1 small onion)<\/li><li>1-3 fresh Thai bird\u2019s eye chilis**<\/li><li>\u2154 cup raw cashew nuts<\/li><li>1 Anaheim pepper, Julienned<\/li><li>1 red bell pepper (large)<\/li><li>2 spring onions<\/li><li>1 lime cut into wedges (optional)&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><li>Cilantro for garnish (optional)&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Lime and cilantro are a personal preference, it\u2019s up to you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>** We like spicy. We found 3 birds eye chilis (with seeds) to be the perfect level of \u201ctrue Thai spicy.\u201d If you prefer less spice use 1 or 2 chilis and <strong>remove the seeds.<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sauce:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>1 tbsp light soy sauce<\/li><li>1 tbsp mushroom soy sauce<\/li><li>2 tbsp oyster sauce<\/li><li>\u00bc cup shaoxing wine<\/li><li>\u00bc cup chicken stock or water<\/li><li>\u00bc tbsp ground white pepper<\/li><li>1 tbsp Shanghai white vinegar<\/li><li>1 tbsp Thai fish sauce<\/li><li>1 tsp sesame oil<\/li><li>1 tsp salt<\/li><li>1 tsp pepper<\/li><li>1 tsp palm sugar or cane sugar\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Cooking Utensils<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Wok or large frying pan<\/li><li>Knife for chopping<\/li><li>Slotted spoon<\/li><li>Cutting board&nbsp;<\/li><li>Tongs&nbsp;<\/li><li>Mortar and pestle (optional)&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3>Preparation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Add all seasoning sauce ingredients to a bowl, mix and set aside.<\/li><li>Prepare and cut all your veggies.<\/li><li>Slice the chicken into even strips, mix with white pepper, salt and cornstarch.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3>Cooking Thai Cashew Chicken<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Add \u00bd cup vegetable oil to a wok or frying pan on medium-high heat.<\/li><li>Fry the raw cashews about 2 minute or until starting to turn golden brown, watching carefully so they don\u2019t burn. This can happen very quickly, so pay attention. Use a slotted spoon to remove cashews from oil and set aside.<\/li><li>In the same oil, fry the Thai bird\u2019s eye chilis for about 1 minute to flavor the oil then drain and set aside with cashews.<\/li><li>Fry the chicken in the same oil for about 5 minutes until golden, use a slotted spoon to remove from oil and set aside on a plate.<\/li><li>Add crushed garlic to the oil and stir fry the onions until translucent.<\/li><li>Add the Anaheim pepper and red bell pepper, stir fry for about 1 minute. If cornstarch is starting to brown and stick on the bottom of the pan, use a couple tablespoons of water or chicken stock to deglaze, the bottom of the pan should be clear of cornstarch (this might require some scraping with a spoon or spatula) and liquid should thicken and get glossy.<\/li><li>Add the seasoning sauce mixture and stir fry until the sauce thickens and becomes sticky.<\/li><li>Add the chicken, cashews and Thai bird\u2019s eye chilis and stir fry until everything is coated in the sauce. Add 1\/3 cup of water and cornstarch mixture when wok becomes dry.<\/li><li>Add the green onions, stir fry for a few seconds then turn off the heat.<\/li><li>Add lime wedge and\/or cilantro for garnish (optional).<\/li><li>Serve with steamed white Jasmine rice!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"766\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-766x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"authentic Thai cashew chicken\" class=\"wp-image-618\" srcset=\"https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-766x1024.jpeg 766w, https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-600x802.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-224x300.jpeg 224w, https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-768x1027.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-1149x1536.jpeg 1149w, https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe-416x556.jpeg 416w, https:\/\/recipetoroam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/authentic-thai-cashew-chicken-recipe.jpeg 1532w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authentic Tasting and Easy to Make Thai Cashew Chicken How to Make Gai Pad Med Mamuang In this blog, you\u2019ll learn how to make an authentic tasting Thai cashew chicken recipe.
