Air Fry Thai Chicken and Cashew Nut

Today I am trying a fancy Chicken and Cashew Nut dish using the Phillip Air Fryer. Air frying chicken breast meat is just so good, the meat is moist and succulent if you've the temperature set correctly.

Ingredients:

1. 400g chicken thighs, pre-marinated with one tablespoon of chinese cooking wine, one teaspoon of soy sauce and a sprinkle of pepper. Let it sit for 2 hours.

4. One peeled and chopped onion.
5. One garlic.
6. One cup of roasted cashew nut. 
7. A pack of chicken and cashew nut cooking sauce from a local supermarket

Cooking:
Cook chicken thighs in 160c for 15minutes. Meat won't be completely cooked but that's ok as I will stir fry a little with the vegetables in the fry pan later. Why this step? so that the meat will absorb that nice onion and garlic flavour when cooked further with them.

Lightly coat the vegetables (long beans, mushrooms, capsicium) with 2 tablespoon of olive oil, toss them all into the air fryer, cook for 12 minutes for 180c.

2 tablespoon of olive oil into the fry pan. Brown the onions then garlic.
Add chicken thighs. Stir them for 5 minutes.
Add all cooked vegetables and cashew nuts and stir them for another 3 minutes on high heat.
Add chicken and cashew nut sauce. Turn the heat down to medium and stir everything in the pan for 5 minutes.

Done. A restaurant-quality chicken cashew nut dish.

Philips HD9225/50 Viva Air Fryer - Mini Review

I recently bought a Phillips Air Fryer. This blog is all about making delicious food with the Phillip Air Fryer.

Here is a mini review of the machine.

My unit comes with a metal basket, which is really handy when cooking wet styled food. i.e with sauce.

The exterior of the machine is all plastic construction which could get very hot during use.
It should be ok for continuously use. My longest continuous cooking time with it is just over 60 minutes with intermittent 2 minutes break at 20 minute intervals. I have to stop to shake the food inside the basket to get them cooked thoroughly.

This is an amazing piece of kitchen appliance.
It's small, quiet and portable.
It cooks food faster than conventional oven. 

I normally don't pre-heat it. I just cook straight away.
Food turns out fantastic. For best results, stay within this range 120c - 180c.
Fish is crispy on the skin and juicy and succulent inside.
Chicken is the same. Well cooked all around and still juicy, soft and moisture inside.

When I use the conventional oven, I always have the wrap the food in aluminium foil to prevent the food from drying out too much. When I am not using foils, I must place food inside a casserole pot with lid on to lock in the moisture in the food.

er-cooked food and say Hello to crispy, tasty cooking.
