Dutch Oven Cashew Chicken


From my recent texas co-op power magazine - while originally intended for camp cooking, this recipe has been modified for the stove-top. no traditional oriental ingredients here (soy sauce, hot peppers, etc.) but after all, the submitter is a texan.

Steps


Add oil to dutch oven or large skillet and heat to medium-high.
Add onion and bell pepper.
Cook and stir for 2 minutes.
Add chicken breasts , carrots , celery and cashews.
Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 15 minutes , stirring often.
Add 1 / 4 cup water if needed.
In a medium bowl , mix 1 / 2 cup water with sugar , vinegar , ketchup and cornstarch.
Blend until smooth then stir in pineapple.
Add cornstarch mixture to chicken and bring to a boil , stirring constantly.
Lower heat and simmer for another 20 minutes or until chicken is done.
Serve over hot rice.
