      Excellent recipe! Definitely restaurant quality. I substitued the carrots and snowpeas with a 16oz bag of oriental mix frozen vegetables. I think the cashews are a nice touch, but not necessary as it is the sauce that makes this dish. The ginger gives this dish a wonderful flavor.

      This was really tasty, I used half a green bell pepper and half a red one. The cayenne gives just the right 'bite'. We all loved this and will make it again. Thanks for posting.

      Definately restaurant quality. Didn't have snow peas and I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs. It was excellent. Will definately make this again!

      Awesome dish!!! We all loved it and my son who doesn't like pea pods has changed his mind. I think next time I will cut the cayenne pepper by 1/2 to cut down on the bite. My husband loved it as is but my 8 year olds ate it and thought it was good too but drank a lot of extra milk. I might cut down on the amount of cashews only to cut down a bit on the calories. It's a keeper in this house!!

      This is a really fantastic dish. The sauce so flavorful without being overly spicy (much to my husband's delight). You're right about the restaurant quality. Thanks so much for sharing.

      Easy, super super tasting dish! Thought I had cayenne pepper and then found out I didn't. It was still very tasty. Next time I will add a pinch I think. Also did not add the veggies, and again, still a stellar dish! Both daughter and husband gave it two thumbs up! Thanks, Dawn!

      This dish is incredible. Has a huge burst of flavor thanks to the fresh ginger and yummy sauce. Very easy to make too. My family enjoyed it immensely. Thanks Dawn, for sharing your recipe.

      OMG! This is sooooo good! I am chowing down as we speak. Mine looks a little funny, as I had to use green catsup, but that did not affect the taste one bit! I even fooled my stepson by chopping the onion into teeny tiny pieces so that he wouldn't notice them! I will surely make this again!

      For some reason, when cooking the chicken, ginger, garlic and onion, the cornstarch seemed to separate from the chicken, forming globs that stuck to my pan. Maybe I had the heat too high, or needed more oil . . . not sure, but next time I think I'll mix the cornstarch in with the catsup/soysauce mixture to avoid this. Otherwise, a very good dish, although my kids thought it had too much heat.

      Great flavor! Chicken was delicious and flavorful. I didn't have snow peas, so I had to use frozen peas. Still turned out GREAT! This one is a keeper.
