Best Ever Chinese Chicken

We really loved this and I can’t wait to serve it again! This will be a great company dish as they will think I can really cook. I did use half sesame oil as we love that taste in Asian inspired dishes.

This is a great recipe and is a real winner in my opinion. I made it with these variations…

Omitted the wine, as well as cashews (only because I forgot to get them when shopping!)

Added the following: thinly sliced celery (on the diagonal), red capsicum for colour and some green onions sliced about 2cms (1 inch), as well as 2 cloves of garlic and 1Tbsp fresh ginger. Sprinkled toasted sesame seeds over the dish just before serving. I found the sesame seeds along with the oil give it that lovely nutty taste, so the cashews weren’t missed after all!

Served with a Chinese style fried rice and went over big!

My kids LOVE this recipe and have requested it already a few times since I first made it. I have a hard time finding snow peas at my local store, so I substitute celery, thinly sliced on a diagonal. The whole family can’t get enough of it.
