Thai Style Cashew Chicken Stir-Fry

Thai Style Cashew Chicken Stir-Fry is full of flavor and is so quick and easy!

I absolutely love stir-fry. It’s great for during the week because it comes together so quickly.  Spend a few minutes with the knife and cutting board to slice and dice your meat and veggies.  Stir together a sauce and cook everything over a high heat.  Dinner is served in under 30 minutes and it’s going to be so much tastier and healthier then carry out.

My Thai Style Cashew Chicken Stir-Fry is one of my husband’s favorites.  Juicy strips of chicken breast mixed with tender-crisp sweet red peppers, green and yellow onions, mushrooms, and toasted cashews all combine with a slightly sweet and savory sauce infused with ginger and garlic….

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Shallots

That being said, last night’s version was by far a winner.  This one-pan wonder combines crispy, smokey Bacon with sweet, caramelized Shallots mixed with slightly salty, roasted Brussels Sprouts to create a perfect symphony of flavor.  And it’s so easy!

I recently, and thoroughly, enjoyed Spatchcock Chicken a few weeks ago at our family reunion held in the gorgeous town of Manatowish Waters, Wisconsin.  If you are looking for a cooler summer destination, this place has it all.  Lakes, trails, biking, fishing, cranberry bogs, great local craft beer, and of course, cheese.
