Park City Cashew Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large onion, 1/4 finely chopped, 3/4 thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups brown rice
3 cups chicken stock or 3 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons grill seasoning (like McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning)
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons chipotle chiles in adobo or 1 1/2 tablespoons dried chipotle powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 -3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped or 2 -3 tablespoons fresh parsley
1 cup raw cashews

Preparation

Combine 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil with the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. When butter melts into the oil, add the 1/4 cup chopped onions and cook 2 minutes. Add rice and cook 3 minutes more. Add stock and cover the pot.
Bring to a rapid boil. Once stock is boiling, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender (17 - 18 minutes).
While the rice cooks, heat a large skillet over high heat. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, then the chicken. Season chicken with grill seasoning. Lightly brown chicken on both sides then move off to one side of the pan. Add the 3/4 cup thinly sliced onions, garlic, and bell peppers. Cook 2 - 3 minutes then mix the vegetables and meat together and add chipotles and cumin. Toss to coat.
Glaze mixture with honey and syrup and turn heat off. Add cilantro or parsley and nuts.
Top the rice with the cashew chicken.
