* 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes * 1 tablespoon cornstarch * Coarse salt and ground pepper * 2 tablespoons vegetable oil * 6 cloves garlic, minced * 8 scallions, white and green parts separated, each cut into 1-inch pieces * 2 tablespoons rice vinegar * 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce * 3/4 cup raw cashews (4 ounces), toasted
