How to Make Chicken With Celery And Cashews

  1. Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast into thin slices across the grain.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Swirl the oil to coat the pan.
  3. Add 1/2 cup cashews (or pecans) and stir-fry until lightly browned (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from wok and set aside.
  4. Add the chicken to the wok and stir-fry until nearly cooked through (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. Add 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced, and 2 spring onions, thinly sliced, to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
  6. Add 2 tablespoons yellow stir-fry paste (or to taste), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to combine.
  7. Add the cooked cashews (or pecans) back to the wok and stir to coat everything in the sauce.
  8. Serve immediately over 1 cup cooked plain steamed rice.
  9. Garnish with fresh celery leaves.
