There’s something magical about combining chicken and cashew, which has birthed dozens of fusion dishes from noodles to stir-fries, casseroles, stews and more. In this recipe, the classic pair meets Hokkien noodles, tossed in an easy yet flavourful marinade from oyster sauce and chilli sauce. We’ve added broccoli, baby corn as well as carrots to make a more well-rounded and hearty meal.
