    Cashew Pineapple Chicken

    Boneless, skinless chicken breast (cut up into chunks)
    about 50 Cashews (semi crushed, best if some pieces aren't turned into a fine powder)
    1 can pineapple tidbits (save 1/4 cup of the juice)
    Sugar Snap Peas
    Brown Rice
    Olive Oil

    Sautee Chicken chunks in olive oil. About halfway through cooking, pour in 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice.
    Once chicken is just about cooked, throw in pineapple tidbits, sugar snap peas, and cashews. Let it all mix around together for a few minutes. Serve over brown rice.

    cook your boneless chicken with salsa thrown in at the end - maybe a little mexican cheese melted on it. simple and delicious!

    Favorite recipe of my kids. I throw frozen chicken breasts in a crockpot with our favorite salsa for the day while I'm at work. Sometimes I will add black beans for more protein and have been known to add corn or any other veggies I may have on hand. Great for topping salad, making tacos, or add with brown rice in a burrito. Quick and easy.

    Make a cheat "Thai Style" Broth (no complaints from super-purist Thai cooks please!):

    Put Coriander (Cilantro for US?) stalks in chicken stock along with lemon grass, chilli (to taste), and garlic. Poach chicken in the flavoured stock (I prefer skinless thigh as it is moister, but if you're being ultra careful, breast works). Poach for around 20-25 mins. Drain out all the "bits" (including the chicken) from the fragrant stock and add any veg you like back to it to soften (I like bok-choi, spring onions and sliced radishes) and finish with a shake of fish sauce and or soy sauce and a good squeeze of lime and the leaves from the coriander stalks. Shred up the reserved chicken and add back to the stock and veg.

    You can make this different everyday by adding different veg and noodles if you want more substance. Eating with chopsticks (as well as a spoon to eat the broth afterwards!) also helps me slow down and enjoy each individual taste.

    Bump so I can find later

    Also...sure would be nice to read a chicken recipe thread without having to hear about the china study. Some of us have tried the vegan thing and it didn't work for us. Many of us just can't afford organic free range chicken.

    I like mine with a little Indian flare.

    Soak one chicken breast in water and kosher salt for a couple hours.
    Cut into small bite-sized pieces.
    Using a good non-stick skillet, toss in the chicken , add a dash of cumin, a bigger dash of curry, some dried minced onions, some onion powder and some garlic powder. When it is just about to be cooked through, throw in a cup of frozen peas and carrots. A boullion cube, or better than boullion, and a bit of water. Before serving, sprinkle in a little flour or corn starch to make a gravy and serve over rice. (I use minute rice).
    You can garnish with wasabi peas, or lightly salted peanuts, chinese crispy noodles, coconut shreds, golden raisins, pineapple, etc.

    may have to try this one for hubby......he like Indian fare.
