Thai Lemon Cashew Chicken Recipe
THAI LEMON CASHEW CHICKEN This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Marlin Estate in Heath, Texas in 1998.

I am running low on ink so I have to be real picky about which recies to print. This looks so good I am printing it right now. Yum.


Yum, yum, yum! This is a winner. Thanks so much. This rates more than a 5 in my book!


It says to cut the beans into two inch pieces. That sounds like a reference to a green string bean.
Haricot beans are white navy beans, also called Boston beans or great northern beans. It takes about six of them in a row to make two inches. :^)
It seems to my all too American taste buds that the string beans would make more sense in the pot with potatoes and bell peppers. But then I have no Thai blood in me.
I just checked the cooking time because a dim light finally came on in my head. There's no mention of soaking the beans or precooking them .... and not enough time in the pot for dry navy beans to cook. It has to be French beans, green beans, or string beans.


Jeez, I'm a sucker for anything Thai. ...and I can't stay away from green curries. I should know better by now. Thanks.
