Winner Winner Crockpot Cashew Chicken Dinner! This tender chicken is a family pleaser with authentic Asian flavors and easy common household ingredients. You’re going to want this recipe in your weekly dinner rotation.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!! I think they wrote that saying for this recipe. In my book, this dish has everything going for it.
It’s really, really delicious. It has a wonderful Asian flavor yet is made with simple to find ingredients. Yay! That means I don’t have to look all over town for hard to find groceries. Best of all, the entire family loves this dish and everyone is happy when I make it for dinner!
If you love crockpot meals, I hope you’ll try my crockpot chicken and dumplings, slow cooker chicken cacciatore, crockpot mac and cheese, and family favorite, crockpot goulash.
Do I Have To Brown The Chicken?
This recipe calls for the chicken to be browned in a skillet before you cook it in the crockpot. As much as I LOVE the “dump everything” type of crockpot recipes, this one is worth the extra step. The browning gives the chicken a richer better flavor and better keeps the chicken in whole pieces rather than shreds.

Oh man!! This was goooooood. I just sliced the onions and put them in the pot. Man, the chicken just fell apart and tasted so good along with the rice. Fun stuff.
I’m having fun making your recipes. Thanks
Hi Jim. I’m so glad to hear your enjoying the recipes! Thanks so much for your comment 🙂
Hello, I have this in the crock pot as I type. I noticed you state to add 3 green onions thinly sliced but in the directions it doesn’t state when to add them. But in the photo I see them not sliced but whole on the plate. Which should I do? Slice them and put em in the crock pot or just add them after they are cooked? Thanks, Jim
