Slow Cooker Cashew ChickenPT165Mhttps://img4.recipesrun.com/201907/2019/0813/9a/f/283186/300x200x90.jpg A Chinese takeout favorite made right in your crockpot and all you need is 10 min prep. It doesn’t get easier or healthier than that! If you’ve been following Damn Delicious for a while now, you know that I love creating Chinese takeout favorites. It’s just so much healthier to make right at home since you know exactly what’s going into your dish. But not only is this crockpot cashew chicken so much cheaper and quicker with just 5 min prep, but it also tastes 1000x better than takeout too! Best of all, you don’t have to skimp on the chicken or the cashews, although I loved the cashews a bit more in this dish. The cashews just soak up all of that amazing flavor, giving you that nice crunchiness alongside the juicy, tender chicken. To top it off, the leftovers are just as good the very next day. I just highly recommend doubling the batch because you’ll want to skip the takeout and have this all week instead!4 servings
