Today’s recipe was born of desperation. Desperation to find a new way to use the abundance of cherry tomatoes in our CSA<\/a> bag every week. Apparently, since several other gardeners have mentioned plentiful supplies of the little things, this summer’s heat was perfect for a bumper crop for gardeners who watered their plants.<\/p>\n

Those of you in that predicament may want to give this dish a whirl. It’s not a new recipe, but the latest twist on one of our favorite stir fry dishes, Joni’s Cashew Chicken<\/a>. Consider serving it over brown rice, our newest bow to healthier living, but put the rice pot on the stove earlier than regular rice. Brown needs at least an extra 10 minutes of cooking time or the end result will be watery and unpleasantly chewy. (Don’t ask me how I know this.)<\/p>\n

Peanut Chicken with Cherry Tomatoes<\/p>\n

3 tablespoons soy sauce
\n3 tablespoons peanut butter
\n3 tablespoons honey
\n2 tablespoons peanut sauce
\n4 tablespoons sesame or peanut oil
\n1\/2 cup raw peanuts
\n1 whole chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
\n3 cups onions, cleaned and quartered, with layers separated
\n2 cup peeled carrots, sliced into thin, one inch pieces
\n2\u00a0 cups sweet red pepper, washed, seeded, and cut into half-inch pieces
\n2 – 3 cups cherry tomatoes, washed and halved<\/p>\n

Sauce: Combine soy sauce, peanut butter and honey in a 1 cup measuring cup. Heat in the microwave for one minute on high. Stir until peanut butter is mostly melted. Add peanut sauce to mixture and set it aside.<\/p>\n

Turn burner to high and heat 1 tablespoon of oil in large frying pan or wok. Add peanuts and stir for one minute, until they begin to brown. Spoon them onto paper towels to drain.<\/p>\n

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in pan. Add vegetables, except for the tomatoes, one kind at a time, at one minute intervals. (Add the thickest first and work down to thinnest. In this mixture, the order was carrots, peppers, onions.) Pour cooked vegetables into a large bowl.<\/p>\n

Heat final tablespoon of oil in pan. Turn burner to medium high and add chicken. Stir until meat is completely cooked and begins to brown.<\/p>\n

Add vegetable mixture and stir for 1 minute. Add tomatoes and stir for 1 more minute. Pour sauce over all and stir until the stir fry ingredients are coated and sauce is bubbly.<\/p>\n

Spoon mixture onto a bed of rice and sprinkle with peanuts. Serve hot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
