6 POINTS Servings |  4 Preparation Time |  25 min Cooking Time |  12 min Level of Difficulty |  Moderate This Chinese restaurant staple gets a lot of its sky-high POINTS® from oil. We lightened it significantly but kept all its flavor and great crunch.

2 tsp peanut oil
2 medium garlic clove(s), minced
1/2 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 pound chicken breast, uncooked, boneless, skinless, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 1/2 cup canned chicken broth, reduced-sodium
2 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
2 medium stalk celery, chopped
8 oz canned bamboo shoots, drained
8 oz canned water chestnuts, sliced, drained
1 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
2 cup cooked white rice, kept hot
1 3/4 items dry-roasted cashews, chopped (about 6 Tbsp)
 

1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and add to the skillet. Cook until browned on all sides, stirring frequently, about 4 minutes.
    
2. Add 1 cup of broth, soy sauce, celery, bamboo shoots and water chestnuts to chicken and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
    
3. Dissolve cornstarch in remaining 1/2 cup of broth. Add cornstarch mixture to skillet and simmer until sauce thickens, stirring constantly, about 1 minute.
    
4. To serve, divide rice among 4 shallow dishes. Spoon chicken mixture onto rice and sprinkle with cashews. Yields about 1 cup of chicken, 1/2 cup of rice and 1 1/2 tablespoons of cashews per serving.
