Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the wok and set aside.
2
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the wok. Add the sliced onions and cook until they are translucent and starting to caramelize, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for an additional minute.
3
Add the sliced bell peppers to the wok and cook until they are tender and slightly caramelized, about 4-5 minutes. Add the cashew nuts and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
4
Return the cooked chicken to the wok and stir in the soy sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the chicken is coated in the sauce.
