CHIPOTLE CASHEW CHICKEN WITH BROWN RICE
I was in a Park City, Utah Albertson's grocery store and picked up a sack of nuts: chipotle coated raw cashews. They were gone before I made it to the check-out. I paid for the empty bag and immediately wrote this recipe based on the ingredients of those nuts. This may look like Chinese Take-Out but the maple, chipotle flavor makes for a North-Western American surprise! Leave the nuts raw - they taste buttery and extra sweet. Toasting will develop a deeper flavor, but the sweet butter nuts have a unique texture when eaten raw.

Steps:
- In a medium pot over medium heat combine 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan, and 1 tablespoon butter. When butter melts into oil, add in the chopped onion, cook 2 minutes, then add rice and cook 3 minutes more. Add stock and cover the pot. Raise heat to bring stock to a rapid boil. Once the stock boils, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender, 17-18 minutes.
- While rice cooks, make the chicken. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add vegetable oil, 2 turns of the pan, then the chicken. Season the chicken with grill seasoning. Brown the chicken on both sides, season with soy sauce then move off to one side of the pan. Add the remaining onions, garlic and peppers. Cook 2 to 3 minutes then add water chest nuts and green peas and mix vegetables and meat together. Add the chipotles and cumin. Toss to coat. Glaze the mixture with honey and maple syrup and turn off the heat. Add in the chopped cilantro or parsley and the cashew nuts.
- Top rice with cashew chicken and serve.

[email protected]This dish was a disappointment. The sauce was bland and the chicken was dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. Maybe I just don't like chipotle cashew chicken.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it! He said the flavors were amazing and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I think next time I'll use less chipotle peppers.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of chipotle, but this dish was surprisingly good! The cashew sauce helped to balance out the heat, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I'd definitely make this again, even if I'm not a huge chipotle fan.

[email protected]This dish was easy to make and packed with flavor. The chipotle cashew sauce was delicious, and the chicken was tender and juicy. I served it over brown rice, which helped to soak up the sauce. Definitely a recipe I'll be making again!
