Chicken With Cashew Nuts is a flavorful dish originating from Chinese cuisine, known for its balance of protein, vegetables, and nuts. It typically includes tender chicken pieces stir-fried with cashew nuts, bell peppers, onions, and sometimes carrots or zucchini, all tossed in a savory sauce made from soy sauce, oyster sauce, and garlic. Rich in protein from the chicken and healthy fats from the cashews, this dish provides essential nutrients like magnesium, zinc, and vitamin B6. The inclusion of colorful vegetables adds fiber and antioxidants that support overall health. However, depending on preparation, the dish can be high in sodium if excessive soy sauce is used. Opting for reduced-sodium ingredients and smaller portions of cashews can make it a more heart-healthy choice. Served often with rice, it combines both nutrition and taste for a satisfying meal.
