  Sauteed carrots and onions, set aside. Sauteed pineapple. Put them in within the last few minutes. Served it with a side of bok choy. Scrumptious! - 4/10/13

  It smelled funky, and the color didn't look great, but when I tasted it - yowza! Even my picky husband cleaned his plate! I thought the serving size was too small - we split it between the two of us. I added a carrot for a little extra veg. This is a keeper! - 3/24/11

  Fantastic. Had this dish in a restaurant recently, so had to try this. It was REALLY good! Easy & fairly quick recipe - I did add some red peppers and sweet onion to the recipe, before sauteeing the cashews b/c that's how the restaurant had it :)
  Putting this on the regular rotation. - 4/13/10

  Wow! This was one of the best asian meals that I have ever made at home. Very easy to pull together, too. Everyone loved it, including my kids. It will be in our regular rotation of recipes. I did add sliced peppers and onions and I think next time I may add a little sliced ginger. - 3/7/11

  Surprisingly delicious! I find chicken breast/white meat too dry in non-crockpotted recipes... but even with the relatively short marination time, there was no dryness at all. We were having a side of sushi bites, so I served this over a quinoa pilaf instead, to avoid rice overload. Worked great! - 12/12/12

  This was so easy and so so so yummy! It looked awful to start being that the sauce was the same color as the chicken but it all came out in the end...and I could have licked the pan! Served it over instant brown rice and a side of roasted broccoli. Delish!! - 2/8/10

  Made this last night. Absolutely loved it! Only problem is I ate more than I should have. My husband says it's a "keeper" recipe. - 1/13/09

  Just in case you are checking this recipe out - fish sauce in a Thai or Chinese dish does not taste like fish - rather it tastes kind of sweet so try this recipe. I usually substitute Gourmet Garden Chili Pepper Paste (usually found in produce section/ask produce manager) for red pepper flakes. - 12/9/08

  Very tasty! I would omit the corn starch next time (I just don't like the sticky texture it imparts). Like other reviewers, I added veggies: onions, carrot, and I tossed in red bell pepper and the green onion greens at the very end, so they were still fresh tasting. Will make again. - 2/22/14

  I used the Three Crabs/Viet Huong Brand fish sauce and it was dynamite! (You can often find fish sauce in ethnic grocery stores.) One other possibility is using pork instead of chicken. Fish sauce goes just as well with pork. :-) - 7/19/08

  I thought that this was a really great recipe. I was unable to find Fish sauce so I doubled up on the Oyster sauce and it still turned out well. A nice change of pace from the normal! - 2/6/08

  The protein per serving is wrong. The proein in chicken (1lb) is 141 grams. Cashew (1/2 cup) - 10 grams. Total 151 grams divided by 6 servings would be 25 grams protein per serving. ( But however you list it - it tastes great!) - 9/4/16

  It was a weird color; not at all like the picture. Personally I would have put in less fish sauce than the recipe called for and added some soy sauce instead but it tasted ok as is. It just has a funky smell. - 10/24/20

  This was delicious! I have celiac disease, so I made a gluten free version of this. All I did was substitute the oyster sauce with soy sauce and added a few drops of Worcestershire sauce for flavor. Otherwise, I made this as is and both my husband and I loved it! Great substitute for takeout! - 5/21/20

  This was great! The only thing I added was 3 stalks of celery cut into diagonal slices at the beginning with red pepper flakes. I think next time I'll add water chestnuts as well for more of a crunch factor. This is a keeper for sure! - 1/12/20

  As an Asian myself, this is a very easy recipe to make especially when one is has very little time on hand and just needs a one-dish meal. For those who desire some heat, fry a couple of dried red chilli in the oil before commencing with the rest of the ingredients. Yum!!
  Definitely a keeper!! - 1/9/20
