Sheet Pan Red Pepper
Cashew Chicken
Sesame, roasted red pepper with moist and tender chicken – it’s really good. Coconut aminos and fish sauce add the right about of salt and sweetness. Add in some sriracha hot sauce, roasted cashews and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Oh, so good. I served this with jasmine rice and scallion filled wontons. Yes, it was a good meal.
Do you ever want a stir fry without actually stir frying? I know it sounds strange – but sometimes I just want the oven to do the work and not have to mess up my stove top and have the oil splatter everywhere.
Well this recipe is your answer. Its cooked in the oven on a baking sheet pan and you only have to toss things twice. It’s easy and the clean up is even easier and quicker.
Let's talk peppers
I love using bell peppers in recipes. I know not everyone is a fan but the colors, texture and flavor can totally transform a dish.
Red Bell Peppers – tend to be more sweet. Along with yellow and orange. Many like to eat them raw.
Green Bell Peppers – I’ve heard people say they like ALL peppers, except green. Yes, they tend to have a sharper flavor but can add so much to a dish when sautéed and mixed with a great sauce.
