Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine chicken stock, soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce, cornstarch, and rice wine vinegar. Whisk together until smooth and set aside.
- In another bowl, add chicken pieces and cornstarch. Toss until evenly coated.
- Heat oil in a fryer or large skillet to 350°F. Fry chicken in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant. Add roasted cashews and stir until toasted.
- Pour the prepared sauce mixture into the pan. Increase heat and cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbling and thickened.
- Return the crispy chicken to the pan and toss gently to coat in the sauce. Cook for an additional minute.
- Remove from heat and toss in sliced green onions. Serve immediately.

Notes
Use chicken thighs for a juicier texture, ensure each piece is well-coated with cornstarch for crunch, and maintain oil temperature for optimal frying results.
