Step 1
Cut the 1 lb chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a small bowl, mix the 3 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp honey.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Step 3
Add the 1 sliced red chili pepper and 1/2 cup cashews to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 4
Pour the soy-honey mixture over the chicken. Stir to coat and let it bubble until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Serve the cashew chicken over the 2 cups cooked rice.
