Chicken Cashew

Chicken Cashew is a fine, exotic dish. It was one of the favorites at our restaurant "Baron's of Old Town" here in Albuquerque. Chicken Cashew with fluffy white rice, a light salad and a bottle of dry white wine makes a memorable feast.

  • 1/2 medium onion, sliced
  • 1/2 cup raw cashew
