    Utensils Used
    | 1. Cook rice in water or stock or as directed on package. | 2. Rinse chicken and dry well with paper towel. | 3. Coat chicken well with hoisin sauce. | 4. Roll in wheat germ or bread crumbs until well coated. | 5. Spray fry pan with veggie oil. | 6. Brown chicken until cooked through. | 7. Cool slightly, cut into bite size pieces. | 8. Spread cut chicken pieces on ungreased cookie sheet, bake at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes until crisp. | 9. Add cashews to cookie sheet for the last 3 minutes of baking time. | 10. Set aside and keep warm. | 11. In a small bowl, whisk together broth, teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce and cornstarch, until well blended, set aside. | 12. Heat sesame oil in large fry pan over medium high heat until hot but not smoking. | 13. Add snap peas, cook and stir for 3 minutes until tender-crisp, stir in water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. | 14. Add sauce mixture to veggies, cook until mixture boils and thickens, stirring often. | 15. Fold in chicken, sprinkle with cashews. | 16. Serve at once over hot rice, Garnish with lemon wedges. | 17. To speed up the process, frozen cooked breaded chicken nuggets (10-12 cut in half) can be used in place of the chicken breasts. | 18. Start by placing nuggets in oven on cookie sheet at 400°F, etc--the taste will be different, not as Asian. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
