Cashew Chicken

This recipe is from my mother. I remember my grandma making this. I believe it was my grandpa's favorite and she would make it on his birthday every year. Feel free to send me your recipes to post. My e-mail is cbruskimk@yahoo.com.

Springfield, MO cashew chicken.

6 whole chicken breasts
2 eggs

1 bottle planters peanut oil
1/2 cup milk

salt and pepper flour

Remove chicken from bone and cut into small pieces. Flour and let sit in flour 15 minutes. Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Roll floured chicken in egg mixture. Roll in flour again. Let sit 10 minutes. Deep fry in peanut oil.

Oyster Sauce

4 chicken bouillon cubes
4 tbsp. sugar

3 tbsp. cornstarch
2 cups water

2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup cashew nuts

2 tsp. oyster sauce
3 or 4 chopped green onions

Boil water and dissolve bouillon cubes. Add sugar, salt and oyster sauce to chicken broth. Mix cornstarch in small amount of cold water, and add while stirring. Cook until thick, add cashews and green onion just before serving.

(I have bought oyster soup to use for the sauce in the past. If you don't feel like fussing with the chicken, you can use nuggets as a substitute. Of course it is not as good, but not as much work either.)
