How to Make Vegetable And Cashew Stir Fry

  1. Prepare rice according to package directions in a medium saucepan.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). If using unroasted cashews, spread 1 cup of cashews on a baking sheet and toast for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  3. Rinse 1 cup of edamame under cold water and drain.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
  5. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat.
  6. Add 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional), 1 cup edamame, 1 bunch asparagus (trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces), 1 cup sliced carrots, and 1 tablespoon grated ginger. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until asparagus is crisp-tender.
  7. Add 1 cup toasted cashews and 2 chopped scallions. Stir-fry for 2 more minutes.
  8. Stir the broth mixture to recombine and pour it into the wok.
  9. Bring to a boil, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened and become bubbly.
  10. Serve the stir-fry immediately over prepared rice.
