Ingredients for Spicy Cashew Chicken Stir Fry

Boneless Chicken :The skin of boneless chicken is typically removed during the process of removing the bones. As a result, it is sometimes thought to be healthier. The skin may help prevent the chicken from drying out during cooking, allowing for more moisture and flavour. Cornflour:When paired with all-purpose flour, cornstarch helps prevent gluten development, which makes the flour coating crispier, and absorb moisture (from the frying and the chicken), which also means a crispier coating. Soy Sauce :Soy sauce is a traditional Chinese condiment that is widely used in East Asia to add flavour to a variety of cooked foods as well as to aid digestion. Sauce is made from fermented soybean paste, roasted grain, brine, and the mould Aspergillus oryzae or Aspergillus sojae. Cashews :Cashews contain a lot of starch, which will thicken sauces just like flour and potatoes do. The use of cashews over flour, for example, has the advantage of adding a lot of flavour to the sauce.
