Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- In a large skillet, add 2 tbsp olive oil and turn to medium high heat. Dredge chopped chicken in onion powder and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side, flipping several times until cooked through.
- Meanwhile in another skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and sweet potato noodles over low medium heat. Cook for about 10 minutes, flipping several times.
- While chicken cooks, make sauce. Add all sauce ingredients to a blender and blend. If a thicker sauce is desired, reduce amount of water.
- Once chicken is done, remove from pan and add chopped red pepper and eggs. Once eggs are scrambled, add red cabbage, carrots and green onion.
- Let simmer on low for 2-3 minutes. Then, add chicken back in along with half the almond butter sauce and the cashews.
- Once everything is coated in the sauce, remove to plates.
- To assemble: serve chicken mixture over noodles. Garnish with more green onion and cilantro, if desired.
