• 2 T. cornstarch
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 3/4 c. unsalted cashews

Steps

1. Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When butter has melted, add a single layer of chicken; season chicken with salt and pepper; cook for 3 minutes, or until brown; flip; cook an additional 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Turn heat to low; stir in the garlic; cook.
2. While chicken is cooking, whisk together chicken stock, soy and hoisin sauces, vinegar and cornstarch in a small bowl; stir into the skillet; cook with chicken over low heat until sauce has thickened. Stir in cashews.
