Hiii... Everyone...
Look at the picture..... Hmm.... Delicious...
Do you want it? hehehehe....
So, our topic today is also about chicken. Like I said yesterday, chicken is a simple ingredient to make various dishes. But in this recipe, we will mix the chicken with cashew. Cashew Chicken is a Chinese cuisine. In Chinese cuisine, you have to stir-fried the ingredients over HIGH
heat to get the flavor from the food.
Yesterday, I also read some news about Chinese cuisine. They use Baking Soda to make any meat (chicken, beef or pork) tender. It is new for me. Because usually I use pressure cooker to tenderize the meat. But, we can always try it....
Ingredients to marinate the chicken:
