Oh My Caroline....This was great. I made exactly as stated, except that I used fat-free sour cream with 1 tsp cornstarch added in to thicken the sauce. So tasty, I also added some carrots, and had to use green pepper cause that was all I had. Served over brown rice.

The hardest part of this recipe is cutting the vegetables and chicken into strips!!! It just is so easy to put together!!! I used carrots as well, as I had plenty on hand to use up, and I used a few more cashews than listed, everything else was as per the recipe, and it turned out beautifuly. Nice and creamy with a honey mustard taste ....... YUM !! Great tasting and easy recipe Caroline....... Will be making again!!
