Steps to make Cashew Chicken Fried Rice:
  1. Heat oil on medium-high, sauté onions for 1 minute; add chicken, sauté until lightly browned.
  2. Add all remaining vegetables and and cook until crisp.
  3. Add rice, making sure any large clumps are broken up. Fry for 2 minutes.
  4. Add soy sauce, mix through all ingredients well. Add cashews, and fry another minute.

Stir in cashews until coated in sauce. This dish of tender stir-fried chicken and roasted cashews in garlic sauce tastes just like take-out, only better. You don't need a wok — just a large nonstick skillet — and, aside from the chicken, the only chopping involves some garlic and scallions. Put simply, it all boils down to the age of the cooked rice … Freshly made rice = sticky, glue-like fried rice; Day-old rice = perfectly plumped, clump-free fried rice; The key element in this equation is the moisture level. Hot, fresh rice sticks together, while older, cooler rice is less likely to cling to itself.
